I was there this summer on vacation and we picked up a case of cans of Maple Syrup. They're about $5 per 16 ounce can if you buy from a whole case (12 cans) from a producer's storefront or a market. That's a fraction of what it costs in the supermarkets outside of Maple Syrup country.

We've given about half the case away to friends and have consumed much of the remainder. Good stuff for sure.
