I want the syrup renamed Angry Viking. Big 6'5 red haired guy with a giant axe and a horned helm.

Since anyone in N Europe likely has a viking ancestor and I have plenty of those. They have my permission to use a viking.

Thanks for posting that.

Fascinating history of the brand--but not the best way to market a product, at all. It is pretty distasteful.

This specific brand does read as "antiquated" and pretty offensive, and I agree, that in this case, they should look to cast a new image, name and look.

^ This nonsense is why I will never consider voting for a democrat ever again. The left is literally insane. I remember Ann Coulter always saying that liberalism is a mental disorder, well now the liberals have finally proven her correct.
Statues of Washington and Jefferson were torn down where? This is the first I`ve heard of it.

Also, the black dude from Cream of Wheat will probably be gone soon too.

That nasty stuff hasn’t been maple syrup for decades. There’s not one drop of maple syrup in it. It’s all just high fructose corn syrup with added artificial maple syrup flavor and artificial color to fool you.

All of it is bad for you.

Spend a few more bucks and get actual maple syrup. Look at the ingredients.

Mrs. Butterworth could not be reached for comment, while Uncle Ben has been moved to an undisclosed location.

No doubt. Rename -"aintYoMommas" with a poison symbol on the label.
