Sugar is not good for birds, nor are nutmeg and cinnamon, unless its ceylon cinnamon. Vanilla isn't good for them, either, as they're made using vodka, rum or other alcoholic beverage.
I see your point. Not criticizing you.
Still searching for a recipe she will eat. Every one I have tried, she takes a taste, the gives me the stink eye. Like "What are you trying to pull here?".
They taste fine to me, not very sweet, but not horrible either. The stores are still out of stock so, no taste comparisons are possible.
One of the last ingredients listed is "other natural flavors", which may be the key.
Are cane sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, known to be toxic to birds?
