The only syrup. Made in Vermont. It's getting very, very expensive. Make cuts in other areas of your food budget, sez me. {Dark amber]
Another item which tasted better years ago...Log Cabin Maple Syrup.
The little tin log cabin, sitting on my GM table and the fresh warm biscuits, (homemade of course) right out of the oven. Butter and Log Cabin Syrup...I’m in Heaven!
Over the years LC became just another bottle of sweet goo and the taste all but disappeared. Time misses no one and nothing.

That was one of my father's preferred "desserts" although he would often eat it with cane syrup, which was purchased directly from the mill in small paint bucket containers. He called it "white mule". I have tried to research the term and the best guess is it's railroad slang. Since he was a foreman on the RR, I guess it's probably correct.
You can buy REAL maple syrup, but you pay a lot for it now. Costco has some, maybe your supermarket. But you won’t find it among the name-brand bottles of sticky stuff. They’re all blends of “maple flavor” ingredients.
I have a co-worker who bottles her own syrup. I bought some from her last month and tried it. I had just run out of Aunt Jemima. The difference was like night and day. The local syrup was very light, lighter in color and the taste reminded me of syrup I had as a child. I will now buy only the local syrups.
