Even on a budget, I won't skimp on ...
« on: January 28, 2014, 09:01:40 PM »
  ... 100% genuine maple syrup.  It's damned expensive (my local supermarket sells it for about
  $11 a pint), but it's like the nectar of the gods when poured on hot buttered waffles.  Artificially
  flavored syrups won't do anymore.  I hoard cleanish napkins and paper towels from work and
  other people's houses rather than opening any of the rolls of paper towels I bought 2 months
  ago, but I will not skimp on maple syrup.  It's the real stuff, or nothing at all!   :arrr:

I can't stand artificial syrup. I'd rather have none, or jam or something. Real maple syrup only, preferably grade B.

You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Sometimes it matters to get the real stuff.

   You understand!  :green:  I grew up on Vermont MaidTM syrup, flavored with vanillin.
   I tasted REAL maple syrup for the first time at around age 40 and I've never liked fake syrup since!
