This Is NOT Real Maple Syrup (Even Though You Pour It On Your Pancakes)

Описание: Most maple syrup brands are corn syrup with caramel coloring and artificial flavoring, not actual tree sap. Budget options are high fructose corn syrup disasters with chemical aftertastes and ingredients banned at health-conscious stores, while name brands coast on nostalgia and bottle designs that distract from what's inside. Mid-tier brands trick health-conscious consumers by removing one bad ingredient while keeping five others, creating a false health halo. Even major retailers source from questionable origins and don't disclose farm locations despite Vermont branding. Real maple syrup costs dramatically less than people think when you shop at bulk retailers, exposing how much retailers overcharge for fake syrup. The best maple syrup is single-ingredient, sourced from peak harvest seasons, and reflects what Vermont sugar makers reserve for themselves. The price-to-quality relationship in the syrup aisle is nearly perfect—you get what you pay for, whether that's petroleum-derived chemicals or actual forest.
