  • How much should maple syrup cost?

    I can get 500ml of golden syrup for about $1, but the same amount of maple syrup costs $15.

    Inspired by the bananas thread, and my trip to Tesco today.
    One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

      Real maple syrup, as in what comes from this:



      Is pretty expensive. That random Aunt Jemima stuff is maple-flavored syrup

                  In Canada, real maple syrup costs pennies per litre. Then we package it in little fancy Chinese made bottles and export it at a huge mark up.
                  There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

                    Why would anyone buy maple syrup?

                      I've never really liked syrup.

                        That's no surprise. You are wrong about everything.

                          Maple Syrup is awesome.

                          The rest, not so much.

                            Syrup is good on panckaes. For french toast, sugar is better.
