@H2O MAN,
I can't remember when I last owned a bottle of corn syrup, and why. Long time ago, anyway.
Hmm, wonder what maple syrup is.. I do like that, the real stuff, though not very often.
Thinking.. someone should (nemmee) start a breakfast place with really good pancakes and waffles (interesting flours, etc.) and real syrups, not just the cheap crap.. and powdered sugar and lemon for certain thin pancakes, and real jams. And, I suppose, with really good eggs raised well, with wonderful butter (I hear real irish butter is great) - and actual good bacon (been to IHop lately?).
And crepes, a good selection, and omelettes, and frittatas... even maybe dutch babies (german pancakes)..
and baked eggs, and breakfast burritos with homemade tortillas..
Bet they'd have to build new banks.
