six pancake syrups from the grocery store lined up in a row
I tried six different brands of pancake syrup.
  • I tried store-bought pancake syrup from six brands to see which provided the best taste and value.
  • I found the Target brand to be bland, and I didn't like how sweet the Kroger-brand syrup was.
  • Pearl Milling Company and Log Cabin ended up being my favorites of the bunch. 

I've never given much thought to the different varieties of pancake syrup at the grocery store — I typically grab whatever's on sale. If I'm feeling fancy, maybe I'll get a butter-flavored variety.
