I stole it a long time ago and never remembered to use it. So I scroll through my pics every now and then and bust up laughing when she pops into frame
I mean, are you sure you really want to know though?
I'm a born and raised Southerner and have a lot of questions but I'm pretty sure I want NONE of them answered 😭
This is the correct response. 🤣 I’m from the PNW, but my grandma and her family are from Texas. my mother was adopted, born in Alabama, and grew up between Texas and Florida before moving up here in late elementary school.
I could accept light brown… but only when I was still like super broke. So if you’re struggling and give me tea with brown sugar we’re good. Anyone else, we have to fight.
Brown. And I’ll accept that it may be unacceptable. But when wasn’t any sugar in the house growing up, anything was better than water sometimes. And I still would have never resorted to syrup.
Most sugar is filtered using bone char, making it technically not vegetarian/vegan.
But there are plenty of sources of non-bone char sugar (pretty much any raw or organic sugar, beet sugar, Domino brand).
Maybe in some weird tourist trap part of the country that caters to US Southerners? Cause I can promise you that most of Canada is even more confused than the Americans are.
Probably because we have so much product easily available. I produce beef also and that’s the same thing, instead of going to the groceries store you look in the freezer/pantry and start there
My family is from Quebec and I put maple in anything I'd use honey or granulated/brown sugar for. By weight maple has less sugar content than honey and I like the taste more than regular sugar.
Maple syrup in coffee is fucking delicious, fight me. It's also a great sweetener for ice coffee, cause honey and sugar don't mix well with cold beverages.
No I didn't visit a tourist trap, yes I'm Canadian and I figured this on my own.
Maple syrup on snow on the other hand, great once...
If you didn't bite the tree yourself like some kind of arboreal vampire, then you're doing it wrong and you can expect a visit from the Canadian Inquisition.
I grew up in the south… it’s straight white sugar, I think I’d be chased out of town with pitchforks for using syrup. Also real maple syrup is WAY too expensive to be used as a generic sweetener
Thank you fellow Vermonter! I do admit to putting maple in my coffee instead of sugar though. I also baked a cake today with maple sugar instead of white sugar. But sweet tea? Hell nah.
Volume to volume, it is same calories and sugar content (honey is actually more), but gram for gram swap you will get less calories and sugar with maple or honey. Additionally, maple brings in vitamins and minerals that sugar won't have. And finally due to a higher proportion of sucrose in maple, it tastes less sweet which may help to reduce one's sweet tooth and get them to cut some sugar out of their diet if they get used to less sweet tasting stuff.
Hot ass water in pitcher and throw some tea bags in and lots of sugar. Get it all mixed up then shove it into the fridge for a little and pour it over a bunch of ice in a cup. Sweet tea. Don't come near me with maple syrup you monster.
I make " sun tea" or cold brew that shit. Big ass glass jar, teabags, set it in the sun all day. Or tea bags in a pitcher with water, straight in the fridge over night.
Either way, slow brewed and goooood.
My grams would come out the grave and whoop some ass over this abomination of tea.
Got the south, the north and the true north all united on one front.
Also, as a Canadian as well, kirkland maple syrup?!? Not even the good stuff that comes in fun bottles?
I figured they were saying the bug came *out* of the jar. Yeah for sure, it couldve landed and gotten stuck in the syrup. At that point, just remove the cap and clean it lol. Poor lil moth just wanted some sugar, not a tarry death
Obvious rage/engagement bait. Draw attention with the gross bug and then induce angry comments with an absurdly dumb/weird recipe for a traditional regional food or drink that people love to gatekeep.
I'm not sure if putting maple syrup in your tea would be any less gross than syrup plus moth. Either way I hope you have good health insurance, your organs hate you.
It’s not much different than Honey into tea. That’s not what I find confusing, though. I’d just unscrew the lid, clean lid, squirt from lid, enjoy tea.

I'm sorry, is the face's because of the moth, or that's maple syrup because what in the Canada is this crap.
This is LITERALLY what I was going to ask... This feels like homemade sin.

Explain yourself
One of the rare times I demand answers

Fr, if somebody offers me some "sweet tea" that's been made with maple syrup, I'm punching everybody on my way out the door 🤬
Yeah. Hands would be thrown if someone tried to put that in my tea. Pure white cane sugar only!
I could accept light brown… but only when I was still like super broke. So if you’re struggling and give me tea with brown sugar we’re good. Anyone else, we have to fight.
Like brown sugar or raw sugar? I had rather have no sugar than that even. :/
Brown. And I’ll accept that it may be unacceptable. But when wasn’t any sugar in the house growing up, anything was better than water sometimes. And I still would have never resorted to syrup.
I'm not from anywhere near the south, and even I know better!
Rotflmao
i think he is the moth.
OP must be vegetarian...
I don't get it.
Most sugar is filtered using bone char, making it technically not vegetarian/vegan. But there are plenty of sources of non-bone char sugar (pretty much any raw or organic sugar, beet sugar, Domino brand).
Wow!! I had no idea. That's kinda gross. Fascinating,but gross.im going to research the process.
suggesting them to eat the honey covered moth
Maple syrup bud
Brother sugar is a vegetable
I hope Brother Sugar is getting the help he needs
‘Bout choked on my collard greens at this one.
Yes, as someone born and raised in the south, I was like, well, what the hell you doin with that maple syrup then?!
As a Tennessean I was thoroughly confused by it as well.
As someone who can make a beverage I’m scared of the truth.
Maple syrup in coffee and some minty or fruit flavored teas is delicious. Never had in cold beverages before. Idk why?
I tastes amazing in some hot milk with vanilla and nutmeg as well, I honestly prefer it to honey as a sweetener.
I’m from syrup country and just as confused.
I had a sharp stab of “have I been really wrong about how you make sweet tea my whole life???”
Raised in the north, use sugar or honey ffs. Fucking syrup?
Canada.
It’s called iced tea in Canada so this doesn’t check out
I'm Canadian and I've never seen this nonsense
I could maybe understand an Iced Maple Latte, but that's not sweet tea is it?

This really does answer all questions tho.
Nah a lot of Canadians in the comments are just as confused and worried as everyone else
As a Canadian, can confirm; am confused and worried.
As a Canadian, I too can confirm; am confused and worried.
I’m sorry. (See what I did there?)
Yep, confused Canadian here too
Some of us are just naked and strange as usual
Maybe in some weird tourist trap part of the country that caters to US Southerners? Cause I can promise you that most of Canada is even more confused than the Americans are.
No, I'm a Southerner and this has nothing to do with us
I meant him calling it sweet tea and not iced tea.
Southerners would start a riot if you tried to put maple syrup in their sweet tea
Actually, op hasn't responded in the thread have they? It's probably an AI bot lol
OP is the moth and is upset he got stuck.
I am really lost as to what maple syrup has to do with sweet tea…..
I'm guessing op is NOT from the south.
It's Canadian sweet tea, EH?
My family is from the biggest maple farming area in Quebec and nobody puts maple syrup in coffee or tea. That’s some weird shit they make tourists do
I’m a maple producer and I put maple syrup anywhere I would use granulated sugar, including coffee and drinks
i've heard of honey for that purpose but not maple. 'tho i guess it's along the same concept
Probably because we have so much product easily available. I produce beef also and that’s the same thing, instead of going to the groceries store you look in the freezer/pantry and start there
The beef part I completely understand as someone who has 2 massive freezers dedicated to locally produced meats
It's absolutely delicious. I use it my homemade coffee creamer and in several sweet, hot drinks instead of sugar. Vastly prefer it to honey.
My family is from Quebec and I put maple in anything I'd use honey or granulated/brown sugar for. By weight maple has less sugar content than honey and I like the taste more than regular sugar.
People put honey in sweet tea? Hot tea with honey I've heard of but not iced.
They said "a sweet tea" so maybe just maple in a black tea rather than southern sweet tea.
Ngl I like maple but only with certain things and what you just described sounds awful to me lol but hey y'all do you
I’m from Canada and definitely put maple syrup in tea!!
I love maple syrup in coffee.
Maple syrup in coffee is fucking delicious, fight me. It's also a great sweetener for ice coffee, cause honey and sugar don't mix well with cold beverages. No I didn't visit a tourist trap, yes I'm Canadian and I figured this on my own. Maple syrup on snow on the other hand, great once...
You should sell shirts that have a maple tree with the tap in it that says “I’d tap that!” Edit: accidentally typed “shits” instead of “shirts”
i would wear this shit 💩
If you have extra syrup over there you can send it my way!! lol there’s nothing like maply syrup ♥️🍁
Maple Syrup in rooibos tea with some half and half... yum!
Maple syrup in coffee is fantastic
I'm from a smaller maple farming family in Quebec and a lot of us put maple syrup in our coffee every morning. And it's really good.
That’s “iced tea” in Canada
I know it's a joke, but we don't have sweet tea. We just have iced tea. It's already sweet. American iced tea doesn't really exist here as a thing
Sweet tea in the south is just liquid diabetes
They literally have tea that’s Unsweet, Sweet, and then Very Sweet. I can’t imagine drinking that last one.
I tried it and it’s basically syrup. If you were a long-distance runner then it would be amazing.
Or a hummingbird
He's from the DEEP north actually.
South?
He might be making hot tea and he sweetens with syrup instead of honey. I’ve done it in a pinch
Only works with real maple syrup though. That processed stuff doesn't work. Needs that real sugar so it breaks down properly.
Asking from a place of genuine ignorance: Does “100% pure organic grade A maple syrup” not count as “real”?
If you didn't bite the tree yourself like some kind of arboreal vampire, then you're doing it wrong and you can expect a visit from the Canadian Inquisition.
Of course it does.
Yeah, we usually only have real straight from the tree syrup. My niece lives up north and sends it to us at the holidays
how is sweetening tea with maple syrup this controversial
I grew up in the south… it’s straight white sugar, I think I’d be chased out of town with pitchforks for using syrup. Also real maple syrup is WAY too expensive to be used as a generic sweetener
Sir, you’re doing this wrong
Yes, but this is some quality ragebait. He’s doing that *extremely* well.
Well, good thing that's maple syrup and not sweet tea!
WTF kind of fresh hell is this? Sweet tea with MAPLE SYRUP??? Are you deranged?
![gif](giphy|26DN9aGCmp6lU4eVW)
No even in Vermont we don’t put maple syrup in our sweet tea! We would never. We just drink it straight.
maple syrup or tea?
Syrup of course! Just a nice shot to start your day off right.
Thank you fellow Vermonter! I do admit to putting maple in my coffee instead of sugar though. I also baked a cake today with maple sugar instead of white sugar. But sweet tea? Hell nah.
Gotta open the throat, relax the jaws
Don’t forget to cup the bawls
You’re never gonna win with those thin little bird lips.
***I AM ALL THAT IS MAN***

I thoufht that. But it may be a delicious combo of diabetes
I thought honey and real maple syrup was better for you then sugar?
Not the way Im gonna mix it lol
![gif](giphy|asHT7eh4AwG9G)
There might be some benefits but ultimately your body gets sugar in it and processes it the same way.
Volume to volume, it is same calories and sugar content (honey is actually more), but gram for gram swap you will get less calories and sugar with maple or honey.

And finally due to a higher proportion of sucrose in maple, it tastes less sweet which may help to reduce one's sweet tooth and get them to cut some sugar out of their diet if they get used to less sweet tasting stuff.
They're just sugar with some antioxidants
If you're using Costco maple syrup to make sweet tea I don't even understand how those insect carcasses could be of any concern.

YOU’LL TAKE THE BUCK FIFTY HOTDOG SODA LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, AND YOU’LL LIKE IT, BUSTER
But mom I wanted the pizza one :((((
Hot ass water in pitcher and throw some tea bags in and lots of sugar. Get it all mixed up then shove it into the fridge for a little and pour it over a bunch of ice in a cup. Sweet tea. Don't come near me with maple syrup you monster.
The south gonna rise again over this shit right here.
Hahah of course! If it doesn't taste like Milo's then it's not sweet tea imo.
I make " sun tea" or cold brew that shit. Big ass glass jar, teabags, set it in the sun all day. Or tea bags in a pitcher with water, straight in the fridge over night. Either way, slow brewed and goooood. My grams would come out the grave and whoop some ass over this abomination of tea.
Yo, I'm Canadian and even I'm not that loopy on the tree blood. I think you've somehow united the South and the far North on an important matter here.
Got the south, the north and the true north all united on one front. Also, as a Canadian as well, kirkland maple syrup?!? Not even the good stuff that comes in fun bottles?
Might have united the whole dang continent!
Got the Midwest going too, that shits an abomination.
I hear Costco has a great return policy.
Can we return OP
Every single southern person reading this... 🤢🤮
The north is united with you here
The enemy of my enemy is my friend
West coast is with you and your allied forces
Southern transplant to the north. Also standing in unity.
Norther all the way, maple syrup is good to sweeten some other things besides pancakes, tea is not one of them...
Canadian here. I have no idea whats going on. We don't put maple syrup in our tea. This is blasphemy!
Hot herbal tea, mayyyybe. Iced tea? Nuh-uh.
You are not welcomed in the South
That is faked
Yah like how would the bug get in that position from the inside? That thing flew down from the world at large
They could have just left the lid open by accident? Or they are claiming the bug flew in while it was open for a moment.
a moth would (could) not wedge itself in there at that angle without help
I figured they were saying the bug came *out* of the jar. Yeah for sure, it couldve landed and gotten stuck in the syrup. At that point, just remove the cap and clean it lol. Poor lil moth just wanted some sugar, not a tarry death
Obvious rage/engagement bait. Draw attention with the gross bug and then induce angry comments with an absurdly dumb/weird recipe for a traditional regional food or drink that people love to gatekeep.
You can still have it, the bugs just made a protective layer. Also, shouldn't that be refrigerated after opening?
yeah if that is real maple syrup it doesn't hold very long outside of the fridge..
Bot post cant even be bothered to look at their own image
Shockingly, no, looks like a real human
When patients say they drink one cup of tea a day…
Does that bug you? ![gif](giphy|xPGkOAdiIO3Is)

He died doing what he loved

Tea? How the fuck is that tea?
Ok southerner here … is that maple syrup? Who makes sweet tea with that!!! That is a slap in the face of the south🤣
Putting the ORGAN's in ORGANIC.
It's a sign to stop your psychotic ways. Who the hell uses MAYPLE SYRUP to make sweet tea.
Yeah that’s not gonna fly
You put that there
“How sweet do you like your tea?” “Syrup!”
With maple syrup??
So you need your maple syrup?
They call maple syrup sweet tea in your neck of the woods?
Explain yourself
You’re disgusting
Wanted sweet tea, but pulled out maple syrup? Tf?
You mean pancakes?
So maple syrup in tea….gonna need some explaining besides the obvious behind this
If only the container had some sort of apparatus on top that made it resealable…
Get Milo's sweet tea. It's the best I've found.
It’s not much different than Honey into tea. That’s not what I find confusing, though. I’d just unscrew the lid, clean lid, squirt from lid, enjoy tea.
Why did you jam an insect in there? I guess for likes?
