I passed several independent places selling it but didn’t want to carry the weight, especially since it’s not something I really consume. Then yesterday I was at a TJ’s near my office and saw Vermont maple syrup for sale.

When I toured Montana again in 2017 I bought some huckleberry jam for my then girlfriend. Stupidly, I packed it in my carry on luggage. The TSA confiscated it, not buying my argument that it was jam and thus not a gel.
