For cane syrup....Steens.

Only use for Karo is the dark when my wife makes a glaze for ham. Karo, strawberry preserves and yellow mustard. Best damn ham glaze evah!!!

It still exists. My wife uses it in her ultimate baked beans and they are G-O-O-D.

I don't eat sugar anymore, but when I did. Golden Eagle makes a much better pecan pie.

The clear stuff with red food coloring makes excellent sfx blood.

I just use it for making BBQ sauce or doctoring up some foods, and sometimes a nip from the bottle, a bottle lasts me a decade. When I was a kid my dad taught me to mix peanut butter or butter with Karo.

Make your own granola bars with it, but maple pecan bars are better....

How is Karo pronounced?

I've only heard Kay-Ro but everybody who ever said Karo around me was a hillbilly

Karo syrup needs to stay around for pecan pies! I had a pecan pie in Europe last year where high fructose corn syrup is banned, worst pie I ever tasted. Outside of pecan pies, I have no use for it.

I've never heard it called anything but KAY-roe. How else would you say it?

Hear a lot of Care-Oh

Grandad always has one of those steel quart cans of Brer Rabbit he’d pour all over his “flapjacks” he had for breakfast every morning. Learned to like it as a kid spending time with them at the farm in the summers.

I prefer Log Cabin syrup on my pancakes and waffles.

Mom always kept Karo syrup around for making Pecan pies and peanut brittle.

My favorite use for Karo Syrup is to mix it half and half with Jif Peanut Butter and slather it on hot fresh biscuits with a slice of crispy bacon inside.
One of my favorite breakfasts along with 3 scrambled eggs, of course.

As a kid, sometimes Karo, sometimes fake maple syrup.
We never had real maple syrup.

But we had our own beef, pork and chicken so I don't feel that I was abused.

Got a use u guys never heard of. Worked for AT&T co. On the Denver: Salt Lake microwave radio sites. All those repeaters had huge single cell batteries to drive standby generators for back up power. Everyone knows how batteries grow corrosion around their terminals, to prevent that we would clean the terminals real good neutralize the area with baking soda the seal the terminal based with white Karo syrup. Kept them from growing corrosion for quite a long time. Had the grocers wondering what the hell we were using it for? In quantities we bought.

Correct

dad gave it to the milch cows for milk fever.....

Why not real maple or real cane.

Not into it

Ma kept it in the larder for baking purposes, but if'n we were out of Aunt Jemima, the clear Karo came out. Nasty.

Never heard it called that. Must be a Yankee thing. 😜

Nothing better than having it with hot biscuits.

Try butter melted sometime it works as well on the taste buds.
