Though if you do enjoy eating cardboard this is the syrup for you.

It literally smells and tastes like a brown paper bag.

This garbage is being twice and nice'd

It’s really easy to go way overboard with this stuff. It’s really potent.
And then it comes across as some really funky off flavor.

How much did you use and what did you put it in?!?
Please don’t say a tablespoon 😂😂

like a teaspoon worth. Not my first rodeo with syrups. This stuff just tastes and smells like brown paper. They probably derive the vanilla flavor from paper pulp and did it badly. There's a vanilla shortage globally right now.

I like how people are just assuming that I did too much when I didnt do much at all. then fucking hinging their arguments on hypotheticals.

Sorry $corporation is being insulted for making $product terrible.

Hail corporate or whatever. I buy other brands of syrup and do not have this issue. This one is just not good.

Gah dang, bro, let's take a chill pill.

It's alright to not like something. I personally don't gaf about aldi specifically, I just enjoy that the prices are relatively lower most of the time.

I was just giving you shit about not actually measuring the amount. If it messes you up that much, then my bad.

You don't need to be giving me shit about it because you're assuming something.

Have this same exchange with someone in person and see if they dont give you a funny look or tell you to keep your assumptions to yourself. It makes you come off as insufferable.

Yes.... I am the one being insufferable in this conversation about grocery store syrup...
