Real maple syrup?

Maybe RCI can start selling real maple syrup right next to the fresh squeezed orange juice machine.

$12.00 an ounce.......

Plus 18% grats and not included in any of the dining packages.

For a time Royal was using prepackaged very sweet "breakfast syrup" that had no maple taste at all. The sugar free syrup packets tasted more like maple. On our last couple of sailings they had switched to vats of syrup that you ladle on. Not sure what was in it, but had some maple taste and was big improvement..

..............dom't give them any ideas...........:D

That is nice of you, does the crew say that vermont maple syrup is not the same as QUEBEC Maple Syrup ?

 

Why you had to capitalize vermont I don't know.

well, Vermont is a proper Noun and as such deserves capitalization. and VT maple syrup is way better than that snooty French Canadian stuff. I doubt the crew actually cares about any difference though, as either option is a damn sight better than the chemical crap served on board.

They were asking why they used all caps for the word, why they had to shout "VERMONT".

At the price of real maple syrup, do you really think cruise lines would serve it?

Your spell checker isn't working again. That should read "superior French Canadian" syrup. ;)

You obviously have never had any of the good Canadian Maple Syrup, after all our flag has the Maple Leaf on it. The Vermont flag has a Pine Tree, some wheat sheaves, a deer head and a cow. Just sayin'. ;)

Some might argue that Toronto hasn't even had a hockey team since 1967. ;)

Délicieuse! Can't wait for Spring. :)

I do know Maple Syrup does exist on Oasis... Just don't know where else outside of the Champagne Bar it would be...

Note: Sure this is the stuff that the producers would otherwise toss. Sure it is what ever is supplied by the lowest bidder. Not trying to go in the Maple Syrup debate.

There was some promise in 1992/93, maybe this is the year... ;)

Fake Maple Syrup is formally known as "Breakfast Syrup". It's definitely not apart of my breakfast

We call it "Table Syrup" here in NH.

My favorite part of spring here in NH is going sugar shack hopping on Maple Weekend with friends. We get quite a sugar high loading up on samples of syrup from all of the local sugar shacks. The best place is Cody's and one year we were able to get bottles that were still hot because they had just been bottled with syrup. Can't get any fresher than that!

On our recent Radiance cruise there were two different syrups available in Winjammer, one was labelled breakfast syrup and can't remember what the other one was called but tasted very much like Maple Syrup.

It is FAKE and tastes accordingly.

Is the "maple syrup" onboard real pure maple syrup' date=' or is it the maple flavored corn syrup that is more typically served in American restaurants?

We're on the Radiance of the Seas, Alaska, if that makes a difference (but I would guess it's probably the same across the whole line).

Thanks.[/quote']

I think you're on the wrong board... ;) Perhaps on Seabourn or Crystal?

I'm guessing the syrup they serve would taste great on the Artificially Flavored Vanilla Frozen Desert Mix that comes out of the soft serve machines!

I beg to differ, Parker's Maple Barn is the best. ;p

Of COURSE it's not "real" maple syrup...that stuff is expensive!! What they use is the flavored stuff...it will moisten and sweeten your pancakes or waffles or french toast. It does the job...but it's not the "real thing".

I don't want to step into the middle of an international crisis...but when we went to Alaska last year, we bought Birch syrup which was better than either the Canadian or the Vermont maple syrups!! ;p:D
