I’m sorry if this is uttlerly ignorant also english isn’t my native lenguage.

A little background when I was 6 o 7 y/o my grand ma made pancakes and used a very special (to her) maple syrup. We didn’t live in Canada or the US and at the time in my country you couldn’t find it in a the store. So she keep it for a long long time.

I ate my pancakes and it was delicious. Then I went to my house to wait to my mom to come home. But I fell asleep. Like on a very deep sleep.
To the point I didn’t hear my mom knocking the door, yelling my trought the window and ultimally I didn’t hear my uncle tearing down the front door. My mom tried to wake me up I didn’t woke up until I was in an ambulance on my way to the hospital.

My mom checked the bottle and it was expired since ’76 and this happened in the 90’s .

I never found and an answer on why it has that reaction on my. I didn’t feel ill in anyway I was just soo sleepy. In fact I spend the night in the hospital with IV and had the best night of sleep of my life

So, what does mapple syrup turn after so many years expired?

There are many different kinds of maple syrup, the main difference being, how much water is left in them. The more water, the quicker the maple syrup goes bad, but almost any maple syrup will go bad eventually. When it goes bad, it could have any number of things in it, but if it hurt you I’d suspect mold of some kind.
