As  a former manager of IHOP restaurants I can assure you that no one in THAT company would go to the trouble of acquiring REAL maple syrup.  Nothing but low-grade maple-flavored (also strawberry, blueberry, and butter pecan) corn syrup for them. Tongue

A global strategic reserve of maple syrup?

This sounds like a job for Dr. Evil!
