[Sca-cooks] OT: Old Maple Flavoring

[Moramarsh at aol.com]

Maple Flavoring should mean it is artificially made. Maple extract should  
mean come from the trees and boiled down to a syrup consistency. Then distilled  
for the extract or pure maple extract. Does anyone else remember the lecture 
we  got at the maple tree farm before we went a mapling?
 
I personally would not use the bottle you found as propylene glycol is not  
indicated for ingestion by new standards of the FDA. They put it in shampoos 
and  lotions and car antifreeze.Yummy.

The  propylene glycol acts as a preservative, but the flavor will not be at 
its  best after a year or so.  

Check it for a precipitate; maple  flavors usually have a lot of solid 
extracts as flavoring ingredients, and  they tend to settle with age,  too.
