It has no additional flavor other than adding sweetness. I would rather have no syrup than “fake” pancake syrup (e.g. Ms Butterworths).

I much prefer maple syrup. Of course it is expensive, so the Log Cabin table syrup is a good substitute that still has actual flavor and is affordable.

Edit: Also if you still want maple flavor for cheaper, a mix of half maple and half cane works good, like the stuff at Cracker Barrel. It doesn’t deserve the hate.

      Is this a popular opinion? I’ve had many people turn down maple syrup for corn syrup instead.

        Interesting. I’ve never met anyone who has a preference prefer corn syrup. Everyone who cared is into the real maple syrup.

          My ex wanted literally corn syrup. Not even corn syrup based pancake strip, but literal corn syrup.

          We were the insane family requiring 3 syrups

          1. Maple syrup fir me
          2. Corn syrup for her
          3. Aunt Jemmima for the kids
