Hey, what's up with you Canadian Maple Syrup producers?

You guys are killing us! Nearly $.70 per ounce for maple syrup? Did you guys form a Maple Syrup version of OPEC?

Just kidding, we would pay more if we had to... well, sort of kidding anyway.

That's hard to believe – on amazon.co.uk, 1L of Maple Shack Grade A Canadian maple syrup costs £15.29.

@helenS Yeah, the only real difference is what I buy I also organic. Let's go with what Frogman and Ganstress said... blame it on Putin.

@Ontheroad In Continental Europe, maple syrup is really expensive. Same with peanut butter. When I was in America and I had no money I lived from peanut butter and accordion bread, because that was the cheapest method of getting the necessary calories.

@helenS I guess peanut butter being expensive in Europe surprises me. Maybe it's because peanuts are not grown in Continental Europe? While the U.S. is only something like 3rd in worldwide production of peanuts, a heavy percentage of its production is in the runner type of peanut - the type used in making peanut butter.

@helenS Maple Syrup is not created equal. Trust me. I know.

@caesar7 Maple Syrup is hard to find where I live. I have to order it online.
Another thing that's almost unobtainable is molasses. Nobody has heard of it.

@helenS so how come you heard of molasses?
helenS · 36-40, F
@WandererTony I started liking molasses when I was in America. I always have a tin can of Appleford's Organic Molasses @home, and I use it to make my world-famous tomato sauce 😋
(It's terrible: I'm too American...)

@helenS thats sounds so strange to us. Hear we get it in loose unpacked condition made by villagers at their homes and sold unbranded. 😀
