Hold on.
Are you saying that the maple syrup I just purchased might be ‘Blood Syrup’?
The real trick was training the 1 million pounds of ants.
“Jesse, we need to cook… Walt Jr. breakfast.”
Oooh… de taunt.
Ha. I thought that when I saw the picture in the linked article with all those steel 55 gallon drums. I thought “Hey, that’s not syrup, that’s methylamine!”
And so yet another idea for a bad Breaking Bad twist ending is inspired … 
Forget it, Jake, it’s St-Louis-de-Blandford.
All they have to do is keep watch over the local supermarkets for bulk buyers of pancake batter and they’ll have their thieves
It’s worse than that. Much, much worse. Syrup is blood, the blood of the sugar maple. If trees could speak, the sugar maples would all be screaming in agony.
they need to deputize a whole bunch of ants. they will find it.
Crap. No-one was supposed to tell. Now the Global Condiment Monitoring Agency will be on our asses.
How does one fence $30 million in syrup without anyone noticing? It’ll be hilarious if it shows up on Craigslist.
How much maple syrup makes up 30 freaking MILLION dollars worth? It has to be an ocean of the stuff. How does our intrepid thief unload such a score? We have to be talking HUGE quantities here.
What I want to know is, is there a global strategic reserve of pancakes? Waffles? Pancake mix?
word has it that IHOP, Butterworth and Jemima were behind it.
Meanwhile, there has been a recent influx of bears into the next province over. Coincidence? I think not. The bears did it, and have fled across the border.
Back around Nov. 22, 1963, a storage tank in NY (or maybe NJ) that was supposed to be full of salad oil was found to be empty. It would have been a major story and perhaps even caused economic upheaval, but there were other happenings on Nov. 23 that drove it out of people’s consciousness and also closed the stock markets so they managed to paper over it. But how do you empty a storage tank surreptitiously? Maybe, like the oil, the syrup never actually got to the warehouse.
I think Pauline Marois should be very afraid then.
Canadians are now reporting copycats have also stolen massive quantities of poutine.
When Canadians horde maple syrup and poutine, does that mean we’re going to have a severe winter?
