*shiver* to me, nothing goes on french toast besides maple syrup ^_^ Though, I have been known to put mustard on my eggs, so I'm not one to talk about odd food combos ^^;
Tell me something. In Canada, Regina notwithstanding, you have no such thing as high fructose corn syrup, right? So your maple syrups are actually maple syrup and not fake rubbish, right?
We do have an abundance of real honest-to-goodness maple syrup (which is all WE will buy, though most brands, especially from Quebec, aren't kosher) but you will also find high-fructose corn syrup crap in the same aisle. Yes, alas, we have it too *hangs head*
Let me be the bearer of good / fattening news. Straight from the OU FAQ :
If the maple syrup is 100% pure - with no additives, then there are considerable reasons to assume that it doesn’t need Kosher certification. At the same time some companies at one time used clarifiers that were not Kosher. It is our understanding that such clarifiers are no longer in use.
This is not the case with Passover, when maple syrup requires a reliable Kosher for Passover certification.
