[...] Is Mrs. Butterworth a syrup fraud?

The label doesn't say 'Maple Syrup'… so no, I don't think Mrs. Butterworth is a fraud.
Real Maple Syrup is quite thin and runs off the food you put it on. Other pancake syrups are thick and stay on the item you pour them on… I like my syrup to stay on my food, so I normally buy the Pancake Syrup over the Maple… Cost is a lot lower for Log Cabin, Mrs. Butterworth and other Pancake Syrups than the real maple Syrup.

I agree! There is absolutely no comparison. The real thing all the way… and even though it costs more we use much less of it with better results.
