We used to be a country. A proper country. I would wake up and there would be a large African American woman smiling on my syrup bottle, and I knew everything would be okay.

Imo, maple syrup is one of the things that's worthwhile to spring for the real stuff

I got real maple syrup awhile back and it was like 4x more expensive and I actually liked it less than the fake shit. :(

Friend in high school had family near Canada that made maple syrup from their trees and she used to give me a full bottle whenever I needed it. It was liquid gold and she moved away so I have to buy it, but it's not as good :deeper-sadness:

That and no profit motive to drive corner cutting and cost saving. Wild what even small amounts of non-capitalist production can achieve
