Want the taste of a Cinnabon in your mouth but find yourself nowhere near a mall food court or airport? These Cinnabon candy canes will probably do little to sate your gluttonous urges, but some reviewers swear they are "fabulous," "yummy," and provide "a great mix of the frosting and roll with a hint of cinnamon." Just BYO-"tub of jizzy hot syrup" to dip them into.

Bonus: one candy cane only has 55 calories, compared to 880 calories. [via Foodiggity]
