Maybe it's because I live in the South, but I've never been a fan of maple syrup, it just tastes too strong. Most folks in my area (especially the older ones) tend to prefer homemade cane syrup bought at farm stands and small grocery stores.
I make pancakes every Sunday- whole wheat, wheat germ, flaxseed meal, walnuts, etc. I never measure anything, just throw it in a bowl. Sometimes buckwheat flour, cornmeal, sesame seeds. It's always different. But always we have maple syrup. I add some blackstrap molasses on mine for iron.

When I was ~12 years old, I stayed with an aunt and uncle in Bay Minette, Alabama for a couple of weeks. I remember going out for breakfast and pouring this dark, thick, vile tasting stuff from a glass decanter on my waffles. It was horrible. Don't know what it was, but I know what it wasn't (maple syrup).

Doesn't sound like cane syrup, it's typically a light amber.
Love homemade pancakes with a small pat of real butter on top then the authentic maple syrup. If out of maple syrup a bit of molasses will do. Sometimes, in season, I like to make the pancakes with the low bush wild Maine blueberries.
I never had those before I came to the US. I tried them in IHOP and I think that's the most tasteless, disgusting thing I ever ate.
I could not believe that people would eat a stack of 3-4, so I ordered it again in another place. Same taste.
By itself it taste like a mushy cardboard. With a syrup it taste like a cardboard with syrup.
BTW: waffles taste about the same... they only acquire some taste from the topping.
One pancake contains 149 calories. 76% percent of those calories are from carbohydrates, 11% are from protein and the remaining 13 % constitute calories derived from fat. Since an average American prefers to enjoy pancakes with syrup and butter, this must also be factored into the equation. One pancake with 2 tbsp. of syrup and 2 tbsp. of butter makes the calorie count climb to 355.
Most people eat 3 and that equal to 1065 empty calories from cardboard and fat and sugar.
The carbohydrate content of one pancake is high, and its fiber content is low.

I don't know what is so wonderful about...
I just love you
But I also love pancakes. So I'll tell you what I do I load my pancakes up, butter, syrup and three thick ones.
In a couple hours, I'd be in the gym, would get out completely drenched in sweat. Works like a charm. Always burn away what I eat.
