I think it is high time that the government steps in; forms a committee, comes up with the action plan, following by an address of the president and vice president, surrounded by a group children who wrote letters to the president of the poor quality of the maple syrup. We should not spare any taxpayers' cost to right this wrong.

>>>Quite right but how do we deal with false labeling and syrup smugglers? If the president is to have a satisfying breakfast that features the syrup, surely the secret service will have to make certain that the quality of the product is impeccable.

I didn't know that. No wonder my pancakes never had the perfect taste <g>.
