Notes:
Reduced quality and availability of traditional tinned retail containers for pure maple sirup has prompted the appearance of plastic containers for this product. Tests which four sirups were stored 6 months in glass, metal and two types plastic containers at three temperatures showed that the sirups in both plastics darkened significantly more than in the other containers during the storage, and a significant interaction between temperature and container was shown. The possibility of a sirup falling to the next lower USDA grade during storage is pointed out.
