I couldn't believe there was a section dedicated to Canadian maple syrup inside a Berlin supermarket. And it was even on Angebote! I found it funny anyway. Photo taken in April 2012. If you'd like to see more signs, take a look at Signs, Signs.
Over the decades I have often brought back a bottle of maple syrup when I visited Canada. As Luna sid, these days it's more readily available in Asian stores.
@Lesley - I actually don't care for syrup. But I was just taking a closer look and the Germans have translated the flavours as "blueberry" and "butter maple". I think they were going by the pictures on the bottles more than what they actually said as the real flavors should be "maple" and "cranberry"!
... And it's cheaper now! :-)
ReplyDeleteCheaper than here:)
ReplyDeleteThere's only one Canadian syrup and it's called Canadian Club or CC. :*)
ReplyDeleteInteresting find.
ReplyDeleteI’m with Andy...add Canadian Mist to the list. Canadian syrup in Berlin is a real eye-catcher. GReat sign. genie
ReplyDeleteAnd such a cheap price!
ReplyDeleteI guess Canada really is famous for it's maple leaf...er... syrup. :)
ReplyDeleteThat would be rather unexpected. The price isn't too bad, either.
ReplyDeleteRe the profile pic: Yup! That's me and Lois Anne, and known as Clark and Carole. :-) Hey, ask a silly question...
Judging by all those bottles, I'm curious if Canada has any other tree besides maple?! (kidding)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, a little bit of your home away from home. ;-)
My sign entry is here: Signs
the world is definitely getting smaller everyday.:p products from Canada, US and from all over are now available in the neighborhood supermarket.
