MAPLE SYRUP
The popularity of hot pancakes
and waffles rises as chilly weath
er sets m If you like your maple
syrup, you’ll be interested in some
recent taste tests of different
grades of this syrup sponsored
by the U. S Department of Agri
culture.
Maple syrups vary widely in
flavor and intensity. The tests
were run to see which type most
people prefer Both producers and
consumers took part in three
taste-panel tests
All tasteis preferred the three
highest grade syrups, when they
were given unmarked samples of
pure maple syrups in the tests
Judges who were connected with
the maple industry generally pre
ferred the two highest grades of
syrup. However, groups of
consumers with little experience
in judging maple products usual
ly liked the slightly more intense
flavor and more amber color of
the next lower grade
In pure maple syrup, color and
