    I just checked the bottle in my fridge and the only ingredient is “Pure maple syrup”.

    The problem is that a lot of people will just snatch up a $3 bottle of Aunt Jemima—or whatever the hell they call it now—and call it a day. But if you’re not a cheapass, chances are that the maple syrup in your fridge is real (if you paid $10 or more for that bottle then it’s definitely real).

    Like the other person said, it’s illegal in the US to label corn syrup as maple syrup. So they’ll usually call it “pancake syrup” or some sus bullshit like that. Pretty easy to spot the difference unless you’re just not paying attention.
