What You Should Know

You'd spot this small maple syrup jug in the breakfast aisle or on a cozy weekend brunch table—perfect for pancakes, waffles or drizzling into oatmeal. The vibe is nostalgic and indulgent yet naturally wholesome, evoking comfort mornings and holiday treats. As a single-ingredient, viscous product made by concentrating tree sap (boiling/evaporation), it’s minimally processed for preservation and flavor rather than reformulated, so it doesn’t read as an ultra-processed food.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:2 / 4

Processed Ingredients

Why this score?

Pure maple syrup is a single-ingredient product produced by concentrating sap (heat evaporation) without additives, so it functions as a processed culinary ingredient similar to sugar or honey rather than an ultra-processed ready-to-eat formulation.

Common Questions about Rich Amber Maple Syrup Jug, 8 FZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective! This syrup is pure maple syrup, which means it’s a natural sweetener without any added sugars or preservatives. It’s great in moderation, especially when compared to processed sweeteners, but it’s definitely high in sugar, so it's best to enjoy it as a treat rather than a staple.
