If you go to the supermarket and spot maple syrup, and compare it to a bottle of shelf whiskey, maple syrup is MORE EXPENSIVE THAN WHISKY.
Truly. Mind-boggling, like common cereal for 2-3x normal price back home. And grapes for $9 a bunch. Cherries for 3-4x price back home?
Ah, well, I prefer simple rice gruel anyways, and exotic tropical fruits are dirt cheap here.
But some Canadian embargo I imagine, haha, has maple syrup more expensive than whisky. Weird, huh?
