I can only eat the real. The imitation has ingredients that i am allergic to. Same thing with soda pop, can't have that either. Unless it is organic and don't have them few chemicals that can kill me in them. It the few artificial ingredients that will put my kidneys into failure
These are the worse for me
Acesulfame Potassium
Aspartame
Butylated Hydroxyanisole
Saccharin
Sorbitol

@HumanEarth I can relate to this. :(
Heartlander · 80-89, M
@HumanEarth Yep, I think it's called high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS). It replaced cane/beet sugar starting in the 40s and 50s, in practically everything where sugar was once used.

I am Canadian ..
So my BMI is heavily centered around the consumption of 100% pure maple syrup for survival and also so I can hold onto my Canadian content , citizenship, passport and birth certificate ..
The tree sap identification and stack of pancakes test is not for the faint of heart for those seeking claim to the Canadian flag 🍁

@BobbyMoeven Won't lie, someday I think I'd love to be a Canadian. Just not sure if I'm a viable candidate for dual citizenship.
Samek · 36-40, M
I feel like I should get special privileges because I grew up in Sault Sainte Marie which is half in Ontario xD
Northwest · M
Imitation? I live within a short driving distance from Canada.
Coralmist · 41-45, F
I just bought real maple syrup recently. God, it is the best right??? I typically have Light pancake syrup b/c it is just cheaper, most of the time. But maybe twice a year or so I buy the real stuff and it is like Heaven Lol.
Samek · 36-40, M
As a proud Northern Michigander (aka Yooper) its real maple syrup ALL THE WAY! Also real maple syrup candies are the BEST!
CookieCrumbs · F
I'm Canadian. I put real maple syrup on everything. 😁

As a Canadian, from Quebec, I must admit there's nothing like the real deal from my home province. I find table syrup an affront to god
come2gether · 46-50, M
Real maple syrup from Maine. Vermont can shove off.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@come2gether I have some New Hampshire maple syrup, it’s pretty good
come2gether · 46-50, M
@cherokeepatti it can be thin from nh, but it depends on the maker
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@come2gether doesn’t seem thin…it’s good.

Always hated imitation and never had maple. I like to make fruit syrups for my pancakes
Ontheroad · M
Real, and from the U.S., not those northern interlopers🤣
ineedadrink · 51-55, M
Real all the way. I'm in maple country so have just a little bias. 😁
Justafantasy · M
The real stuff, in a can, from Quebec. Only good thing from Quebec
JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M
I cannot recall if I ever tried real.
I limit syrup nowadays due to my diabetes. I even sometimes sprinkle Splenda on my pancakes. Of course pancakes are full of carbs so it is like eating chocolate cake without frosting and claiming it is low carb.

ineedadrink · 51-55, M
@JoyfulSilence I have heard that the real stuff is surprisingly low on the hypoglycemic scale. Much healthier than any chemical concoction sweetner.
JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M
@ineedadrink
Splenda uses sucralose which is not metabolized. It looks like sugar except a few atoms are replaced with chlorine.
I hope the chlorine does not kill me. Yet perhaps it disinfects? 🤪

As a Canadian, you know my answer
caccoon · 36-40
@ineedadrink is it really better?
ineedadrink · 51-55, M
@caccoon Probably the same but I'm going to claim it is because I'm in nowheresville, surrounded by syrup producers. 😁
JustDJ76 · 46-50, M
Real. But who can afford it. 😳
Heartlander · 80-89, M
:) real maple. But good syrup from cane would be my preference. Some times the maple in maple syrup is too strong.
Oh, and my grandpa was a cane farmer :)

To be honest, I don't recall ever having had real maple syrup. I'd like to try it sometime.
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
I don’t like real maple syrup much. I like the garbage buttermilk syrup
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
I first tasted real maple syrup about 25 years ago. Haven’t purchased anything else since then.
meggie · F
I only would use it on pancakes, but as I have no maple syrup, I'm happy with honey on my pancakes.
Samek · 36-40, M
Do you make your own maple syrup? I don't but my parents did a lot of it when I was a youth.
nonsensiclesnail · F
Real.
Never imitation.
My grandson thinks it’s gross. Poor kid. Has no taste.

@nonsensiclesnail my daughter same way. Doesn't know whats good
mooncrest02 · 31-35, F
Real, once you go real theres no going back really.
@mooncrest02 it's music to your taste buds
carpediem · 61-69, M
You mean sugar or no sugar.
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
Definitely real
Adogslife · 61-69, M
Real. I’m not 10. 😂
FreeSpirit1 · F
I like both
SnipingSvelte · 26-30, F
real
TrunkZ · 56-60, M
While real maple syrup is ultimately better, I do see her point. The fake stuff plays the part fairly well. I wouldn't send the pancakes back if there was no real syrup available 😬😬

Real
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
I prefer real maple syrup.
However being a type 2 Diabetic, I almost exclusively use the Sugar Free Syrup.
Sometimes I sneak some real stuff, just a tiny bit. It is great.

Notsimilarreally · 31-35, F
I actually prefer the aunt Jemima 😅 but have only tasted a handful of real maple syrups so maybe I just haven't tried the right one?
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
When I was a kid I liked the imitation better too. Now I can't even stand to smell it lol
Samek · 36-40, M
@SwampFlower Cane sugar is one helluva drug
Iwillwait · M
In probably more inclined to know the imitation maple syrup over the Actual/Real maple syrup.
DrWatson · 70-79, M
I go for the real thing, but I have met people from your daughter's tribe.
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
The real stuff -- but who can afford it?
swirlie · 31-35, F
@ChipmunkErnie
Only Canadians can afford the real thing because as a Nation, we are very affluent. Every Canadian I know is rich and debt free and owns at least one car that is no more than 3 years old. Why would Canadians choose imitation maple syrup when the real stuff is growing in our backyards and drains from our trees by the metric gallon?!

Harmonium1923 · 51-55, M
@Bexsy OMG right? I’ll pitch in.
OogieBoogie · F
@Bexsy i tasted the fake stuff once ....and i think i could guess at the flavour they were aiming for....but even i knew it must've been way off by the way people speak about real maple syrup.
Dont worry....its on my imaginary bucket list
Id love to do Canada. Trek around, stay in small dinky places and country pubs. Binge their food🤗

🤔 real maple syrup is my preference NOW I WANT PANCAKES DAMN IT 😭
swirlie · 31-35, F
I was born with a sterling silver maple tree sap spigot in my mouth which my mother used as a substitute soother on me until I was 5, so I'd probably hurl myself off the highest stack of pancakes in the land if anyone tried to serve imitation maple syrup to me without my prior knowledge.

I was brought up on the fake stuff so that's what I like now.
