I appreciate the guy might be nice but my point is that the post headline says “BJ and Target taste better than Vermont Maple Syrup” and it is a single brand of Vermont syrup that doesn’t even have the market presence for me to recognize and I grew up where they are headquartered. So I’m sure they put out decent syrup and are good people but I can’t speak to if it’s better than chain brands because I’ve never heard of them.

I however disagree with what the post tried to insinuate because I’ve tasted better (than BJ/Target) from the small batch places that many Vermonters get their syrup from.

It’s like if Consumer Reports compared Ben & Jerry’s with other big brands then someone here said “such and such brand is better than Vermont ice cream”. Well, no, Consumer Reports only compared to A SINGLE Vermont brand. I could hit up many farms with their own in house ice cream.
