Why I'm Against Store-Bought Syrup


Store-bought syrups might seem appealing, but they aren't that great. I really wanted to show you guys the pros and cons of store-bought syrups, so I made a list below:



Store-Bought Syrup:


Pros:


- It's easy to make snow-cones with.


- The container is nice.


Yup, those are the only pros.


Cons:


- It's completely artificial.


- They don't taste that great.


- It's super unhealthy. Here's an example:




- There's a disgusting amount of food coloring.


- Does it have natural flavors? Well, what's natural. Pretty much anything not man-made. That means that they could put ANYTHING natural in their syrups without listing it in the ingredients. Yuck!


Now, let's move on to a more delightful topic. Like homemade snow-cones!



Homemade Syrup:


Pros:


- It's healthy... enough.


- You can make pretty much any syrup you like.


- It's downright scrumptious!


- You choose the ingredients.


- No food coloring necessary!


Cons:


- N/A



Thanks for reading!


Note: The reason the bottle is almost empty is from the times we used it before we knew about homemade syrup. I really don't know how we downed the stuff.
