Canada taps into strategic reserves to deal with shortage of maple syrup

I prefer Aunt Jemimah or Mrs Buttersworth to good, real, maple syrup.

I really enjoy telling people because it just somehow seems to really annoy people.

In almost every other category of food I go for high quality but with maple syrup the bottom of the barrel is the best.

That's quite an admission. In Canada you might get syruped and feathered! But seriously, those products cannot advertise as "maple syrup" so the comparison is an apples vs oranges one.

The Aunt Jemima brand name has been replaced with the Pearl Milling Company brand name (a nod to history as that company created the original pancake mix that went on to great popularity).

I would consider getting syruped and feathered.

Hopefully dowsed in the one with artificial butter flavor!
