Get the good stuff, which is made in Vermont. If you are too poor or stupid to get your hands on it, be advised that there are different grades of maple syrup, just as with petroleum. Get the dark amber kind, which is thicker and less penetrative.

Also, develop a palate and some discriminating taste. If you truly find aunt jemima flavored corn syrup tastier and more satisfying than real (which is to say, Vermont) maple syrup, then there is little hope for you.

You can intone 'Oh really?' about a dozen different ways and unless the other person is keen to it, they aren't gonna notice. It's politeness as a way of enforcing cultural norms.
People from Iowa (another state known for being nice) go out of their way to help people because they know the other person would help them if they needed it. Minnesotans do it because they -expect- the other person to return the favor.

Nah, they just mass produce a lot of it because they have so much domestic demand. They thin it with turpentine most years because their syruping season is shorter than the seasons in Vermont and New Hampshire. As I noted above, I will nonetheless eat it in a pinch because even bad, mass-produced, adulterated swill is better than artificially-flavored corn syrup.

But true connoisseurs insist on the unadulterated goodness of Vermont maple syrup. Which explains the price and availability disparities.

Maybe not any more, at least I hope. But as recently as '03, the findings of McManus and Naulet back in '96 were shown to persist, demonstrating adulteration by more than half of Canadian syrup producers with garbage like cane sugar solution and beet invert syrup.

The even more alarming studies by Morselli, Whalen, and Mollica back in the mid-1980s found similar garbage in a shocking proportion of Canadian syrup, plus volatiles and, yes, turpentine, which they speculated the Canadians used in the adulteration process, though they never, to my knowledge, fully figured out the processes used by the unscrupulous canadian producers.
