Maple Syrup – Don’t Buy
Are you aware that diabetes is one of the leading causes of people passing away in the US and the rest of the world? Having persistent high concentrations of glucose in the blood leads to organ damage, even including blindness. So we should avoid sugary food altogether and stick to fish and vegetables. That is one reason why you should not buy maple syrup.
If you do want it, avoid getting it from Walmart. Consumer Reports rated it good, but Trader Joe’s has been rated excellent, and compared to the $1.17 per ¼ cup price at Walmart, you can get it at only $1.07 per ¼ cut at Trader Joe’s. The difference might be negligible, but you will be surprised if you count how many bottles you buy in a year. Be a degree more conscious about sugar consumption, though. Indeed, one can never be too cautious when it comes to our body’s sugar levels.
