Different types of sugars....

 Really appreciate the post Dave!  I never put any thought into the type of sugar and didn't know all of the possibilities.  Gonna put this to use in some recipes :)

I have been putting pure maple sugar to use in bacon, back bacon and ham. Our Costco has been carrying it lately, usually got it direct from Quebec. I find the sugar has a more concentrated maple flavor than the syrup. Mixed with Demerara, makes a damn nice bacon!

Wow - that sounds amazing! You have any idea how amazing chocolate chip cookies would be with that?!

Maple Sugar? Do you have to order it from Vermont/Maine also?

@Foamheart No sir! As  I mentioned, I used to get it from Quebec, they supply 3/4 of the worlds supply of maple products. I have relatives there so it was simple to get it from the source before it was marked up too many times. The stuff I used for the last couple runs of stuff I got from Costco. They had it displayed in with the spices, next to the cinnamon.
