Be careful not to confuse the cinnamon and the cayenne!
I'd be much more concerned about confusing the red pepper flakes for pequin flakes or arbol flakes. Made that mistake once when I pulsed some pequins in the spice grinder and didn't label the bottle. It would have been fine IF I had used a 10th of a pinch instead of the normal pinch of red pepper flakes! I don't even want to think what it would have been like if the flakes were arbol or japones!
BTW, the only pepper flakes we keep in the spice jars are standard, run of the mill, red pepper flakes.
