  • No idea why you’ve got any downvotes.

    This is very true. You have to search for actual maple syrup in the US.

    EDIT: Yeah. I know how to find actual maple syrup, folks. There was a time long ago when products actually looked like what you were buying and weren’t all imitation crap. There was no such thing as corn-syrup labeled “breakfast syrup” or “maple-flavored syrup” or “Real syrup” in giant bold text and “with maple flavor” in tiny font somewhere distant.

    Stop defending deceptive product labeling.




  • You don’t need the comma when you write it this way. The comma in June 12, 2024, is there exactly because it’s the wrong order.

    It’s basically “I wrote the date. Oops, forgot the year!”

    Computers order it correctly in that format because that’s the correct format. In the same way a computer will order any other correctly formatted numbers in the correct order - and incorrectly formatted numbers in the incorrect order - it shouldn’t be surprising that they order correctly formatted dates in the correct order.
