Maybe they’ve found the goods from the great maple syrup robbery in Canada?

Smells other than human perspiration and feces are foreign to those libbie city-dwellers.

Tuesdays in Cedar Rapids, IA...Captain Crunch manufacturing day...the entire town smells like fresh doughnuts & crunchberries....the rest of the week, forget it. Penford Products churns out eye-watering turd pies in urine sauce, or something.

The City of 5 Smells to the locals; all other areas refer to it as StinkyTown.

Could it be Benzoic Acid’, C6H5COOH, which apparently produces a syrup-like odor?

“It’s a white crystalline powder and the industrial applications are as a corrosion inhibitor, as an additive to automotive engine antifreeze coolants and in other waterborne systems, as a nucleating agents for polyolefin, as a dye intermediate, as a stabilizer in photographic processing and as a catalyst. Wide range of benzoic esters are used as solvents, dying carrier, disinfectant additive, penetrating agent and pesticides and manufacturing other compounds.”

If it’s almond/amarretto, easy to confuse with maple, it’s cyanide. Take precaution.

I blame this guy:

[Mr Radical]

Sticky, sweet smell? Probably only Sarin. Nothing to worry about, it’ll pass.

A large radiator overflowed antifreeze on a hot engine.

The city could be fogging for mosquitos, if they are still prevalent in your area.

Up here Maple syrup is selling for 3 bucks a small container.
In Massachusetts same container = 6 bucks

I work in Edison,NJ, still smells like curry.

Some still swear they can smell the molasses on hot days in Boston’s North End, almost 100 years after the Great Molasses Flood.
