Uncle DT's Random Image Thread

[Kruger]

So with the cost considerations, I'm sure the sales are a combination of all three, more immediate revue streams from the B2B and wholesale with extended revenue and higher costs related to regular retail.  The stuff we get here, when you can find it, is always a blend from multiple sources.  But at least it's real and not the high fructose corn syrup that Aunt Jemima labels as "table syrup" and made to look like real.  And it's crazy here, that's what everyone grew up on and what they always prefer when given the option between real and that "other" stuff.  Caroline's family always used that Aunt Jemima and once I brought in some real syrup that I brought down after visiting home once, it was a mixed bag.  A few still preferred the HFCS stuff, but Caroline and her mom preferred real syrup.

You know that if you went this route, you would have a customer here, and potential additional sales with some local distribution.

One thing that I do really miss here are the additional maple products, like candy, sugar, and cream.  One of our company kick offs was at Lake Louise in Banff in March and one of the evenings had some outdoor gatherings.  They were doing maple taffy, where they heated up maple cream, poured it on fresh snow and added a popsicle stick so you could pick it up and snack on it.  Damn that was some amazing treat!
