A little-known variation of the originally viral
cinnamon challenge, the Sahara Anus instead forces contenders of the challenge to place cinnamon in or around the anus for a period of time. The goal of the Sahara Anus is to keep the cinnamon
on the outside opening of the butthole (or completely inside for the most daring contestants) longer than the rest of the
challengers. The name derives its origins from the extremely parched and dry texture the cinnamon leaves on the anus, similar to the extreme heat and barrenness of the Sahara Desert.
