Well, after waiting a week I finally got a reply from LT headquarters!
I have copied and pasted exactly what was contained in the email so here it is:
We have no experience with the cinnamon strips. If you are finding them a problem, please let us know so that we can advise other people.
I don't even know who its from!
So there you go...... I guess that means we can use the cinnamon strips, although as it says; if you do have any problems- tell LT so they can advise accordingly. Although I have now been using them for a week and I can't say I have noticed a difference xxx
