Good idea. Hopefully Tennessee has a Strategic Jack Daniels Reserve. In the event of an emergency.

Anybody ever try tapping non-sugar maples?

We have red maples, silver maples, sycamore, black walnut and hickory. I'm thinking about giving it a try this winter.

It’s because government bureaucrats need to do something in order to justify their useless jobs and inflated salaries, that’s why.

"It's got to be an inside job," he said. "What do you do with that much syrup? You have to be in the industry."

It could present a sticky problem trying to unload that much maple syrup, if that's what they intended.

when something is that big of a market, it makes sense to have a strategic supply, or else you are hit harder by bumps in the road.

if there was a drought then all the manufacturers from the tree sap collectors to boilers and bottlers and shippers are out of work.

So, it is like money in the bank to tide you over until the next paycheck.

The Atlantic keeps a strategic reserve of crap in their basement in case they don’t have enough one month for their magazine.

My friends and countrymen, we must ask ourselves
why there is a Maple Syrup gap and what can we
as concerned citizens DO about it.

In concluding, something must be done about
the Maple Syrup loop hole. The days of just
anyone going into a store and buying Maple Syrup
should be over, the same with Syrup sold on the
street and out of the backs of cars, this practice
must STOP.
