I have to go with Cracker Barrel when I'm down South. We were in South
Carolina a few weeks ago and had a great breakfast at CB. They had real
Vermont syrup. God bless America.

We have Cracker Barrels in Michigan...but we have real Michigan maple syrup
which isn't distilled acid rain like Vermont's....

Why would you import someone else's produce when you're a leading
agricultural state (although some places do, but Michigan stuff is better
and cheaper) It would be like eating Washington apples or Maine
potatoes...Michigan is a leader in both industries...also, why would a
Michigander eat cane sugar when we grow sugar beets? BTW, real maple syrup
is real maple syrup and there is no distinction between Vermont syrup or
Michigan syrup. Where there is a distinction is when you tap maple trees
that don't get enough cold/warm nights/days...like Indiana, for
example...the sap doesn't have the sugar content necessary to make really
good syrup. We tapped once...it is a lot of work and boiling the stuff down
without the equipment (a still type thing is a tedious process, and since
there is a sugar bush farm around the corner, I just buy it from them.

Don't they have any Hooters there?





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

I'd never been there before. I though it meant the waitresses wore the
barrels.

Have you tried the freezing method of rendering the syrup?? Works like a
charm and reduces the remaining stove time to a 1/4 of what it normally
takes. It's just a matter of freezing the raw syrup and removing the ice.
The syrup itself does not freeze as quickly so you reduce the water content
by a major factor. The result is the same.

in case you haven't noticed: hooters are everywhere.
of course, some are better than others.
but they're all good.
