Buy the cheaper darker grades, rather than the lightest ones. They cost less, and have a lot more maple flavour.

We need a law against fake butter with tricky names

Look up Wisconsin Statute 97.18.

Three months in jail for serving "butter colored margarine in a restaurant, or to serve margarine to students, patients or prisoners without a doctors order or to sell margarine in less than one pound blocks.......

We have all the laws we'll ever need.

I agree.

This will just increase the profits and violence of the syrup cartels.

I can see it now.
Swat team raid, not on a drug den, on a fake Maple syrup manufacturing sweatshop.
The horor.

“This is fraud, plain and simple, and it undermines a key part of Vermont’s economy,” Leahy stated in the release.


So let me get this straight. The Leftists want me to buy locally grown food so that I don’t harm the environment with all the shipping. Leahy needs to be consistent and insist that Vermont syrup needs to stay in Vermont...for the sake of the environment.

And I see from your tagline that you’re “sticking” with Herman!

That explains the bumper sticker I saw on Sen. Leahy’s car: “Say No to Cain. Vote For the Real Sap”.

We tried Vermont Maple syrup years ago, when we owned an A-Frame in Killington, we didn’t like it. It was too sweet and expensive, so we went back to good old Log Cabin syrup.

Now I use the sugar free stuff.

I’m sure Senator Leahy will vouch for the 100% authenticity of that Cajun restaurant up there on the ski slopes of Stowe....
