Here's the skinny on some pancake syrup:

Log Cabin All Natural Syrup not the real deal

A new Log Cabin syrup touted as "all natural" looks a lot like the pure, 100 percent maple product that's the pride of Vermont, right down to its packaging in a plastic beige jug.

But Vermont officials, seeking to protect the state's signature commodity, contend that Log Cabin All Natural Syrup is not what it seems, enticing consumers into dousing their pancakes with ingredients that include caramel color, xanthan gum — a natural thickener — and a paltry 4 percent maple.

Thanks for that info warning about deceptive packaging by the Log Cabin folks. How disappointing for those of us who love REAL maple syrup.

Here’s the link again along w/ Quix ping.
