I totally agree about maple syrup vs substitutions. I get most of my maple syrup in cans from Quebec, which a family member brings back when she visits family (which hasn't been for a while now.). I like the pictures and recipes on the cans.
I'm kinda picky about what is called "maple syrup". I have been served crappy imitation stuff one too many times, when I was asked if I wanted maple syrup on pancakes or whatever.

Just a clarifying note, I dont really like breakfast foods as mentioned above , but absolutely Love Bagels ( especially fresh ones , warm right out of the oven). Other than that, no pancakes, waffles , eggs .... for me .
I love breakfast foods and could eat them all day, everyday. Ironically, I started intermittent fasting a few months ago and no longer eat breakfast, and definitely, no more pancakes. I do use maple syrup once in a while as a sweetener in yogurt etc.
Incidentally, my bloodwork has greatly improved since I started the 16-8 fast and avoiding carbs. Plus exercise, of course.
