It’s a damned good job that I haven’t got a sweet tooth…lol! I did try the Maple Ice Wine when I was in Toronto a few years ago, and absolutely loved it!!!

Oh Man, I am hungry now too

Hey Zhu,

Oh my God…are you promoting sweets, here? Now my mouth is watering: Bagels…with cheese…Mmmmmmm!
Nanaimo bars sound delicious…I love custard, chocolate mmmmm.….
Maple syrup is the thing I miss the most (since I left Canada)! I love it on waffles and pancakes Mmmmm…

Oh my…I can’t be thinking of food right now, I must not put on weight this year…I got a marriage to attend to: and I am the leading star LOL LOL!

This was a yummy post, mon amie !

Cheers

@Theresa — Sorry I made you hungry! Yep, food is good here…

@Ghosty — Same in France, but I would have thought maple syrup can be find easily in the US. Maybe we should start an import/ export company??

@Spyder — Oh, how could I forget the sugar pie! Do you miss them in Kansas?

@Madame M — We have some good things up there, not just snow!

@DianeCA — You’re very welcome! We are all addicted to some cultural products — I drive downtown Ottawa every week end to get some cheese from the Lebanese shops, the only ones to import French “gold”!

@Linguist-in-Waiting — I’d have to taste this “maple tempura”! They don’t have it here in Japanese restaurants I know, the cans DO look like paint!

@shionge — No? Well, you will have to come back then!

@Keshi — Er… No Vegemite for me!

@Art — Obviously, maple treats are sweet, but I’d rather have that than a fast food meal

I did not realize that there are so many other products derived from maple. Very sweet indeed! And in case you didn't know, in Minoo City, Japan, they also produce a local specialty from maple. Guess what? Maple leaf tempura! I kid you not. It was, well, crunchy. By the way, the first time I saw those cans of maple syrup, I thought they were paint cans, and the brown picture looked like brown paint dripping from the sides!

I will thank you again for the maple fudge!! I grew up in upstate NY and have many of the same specialties, but here in Norway they are not available. I still remember driving to Vermont with my dad to see the maple sugar factory the short period they were open and to get fresh maple candies...mmmmmm....now we live more in wine and cheese country, which is what we are having tonight....cheers!!
