New York's maple syrup producers warn Trump 's punishing tariffs may force Americans to pour corn syrup on their pancakes.

Adam Wild , director of Cornell University’s Uihlein Maple Research Forest , says vital equipment used to produce the sticky sweet condiment is built and imported from Canada .

He said with tariffs promising to make Canadian maple syrup unattainably expensive, domestic American production doesn’t come close to meeting annual demand.
