Grew up with Karo Pancake Syrup, which I haven't seen in years. Hadn't been informed as to its inferiority and loved the stuff. 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.

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?

My dad and grandma LOVED the genuine "black strap molasses! 😝 Nasty, heavy duty stuff!
Down in the south here, good maple syrup pretty much has to be bought on time or on lay-a-way! LOL! Good stuff, just pricey! We don't get it very often and I'm pretty sure it's not the "Grade A premium" stuff!
SOOOO.....for pancakes, we just suffer through with Log Cabin or some other (Griffin's) "wannabe" syrup. To me, Mrs. Butterworth's is some nasty stuff! 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.

Why not real maple or real cane.

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

Nothing better than having it with hot biscuits.
Try butter melted sometime it works as well on the taste buds.
