It is really hard to find. I did find the 12 ounce bottle recently (May 4, 2010) at IGA food store near Tallahassee, FL (actually found in the community of Woodville just south of Tallahassee). The product cost $2.35 at the IGA Store for the 12 ounce bottle. Winn Dixie used to carry the syrup (19 ounce bottle) but I have checked there for nearly six months and they are always out. I am looking tonight (7-23-10) on the internet for the 19 ounce bottle but having no luck so far. I enjoyed reading the stories of others who like this syrup. So, I decided to add my comments. Using another syrup other that the Roddenbury's is just disappointing. I have eaten the Roddenbury's syrup all my life and I am old now. Real maple syrup is very good sometimes but too expensive. When a person wants some "real" syrup Roddenbury's syrup cannot be beaten. I have heard some people say it is "strong" but maybe they grew up on imitation or sissy syrup and have not developed a taste for "real" syrup. So, if you have an IGA store near you it would be worth checking out. And, if anyone knows a web address for the 19 ounce bottles please let us know. I am going to look some more and if I find an address I'll post it on this site. Thanks. I am another person trying to find Roddenbery’s Cane Syrup. It is really hard to find.

It really is the best syrup ever! The only place I've been able to find it is in a small grocery store in Pine Hill, Alabama. Just to give an example of how important this stuff is to me . . . . when my husband and I moved to Minnesota, we couldn't find it, so I decided to have my grandparents ship me some from their town. I hadn't even gotten a taste of it, when hubby, in all his clumsiness, dropped the bottle on the floor and it shattered. He got blasted out, then I cried, then he got the silent treatment the rest of the night. And don't you know, as I sat there looking at the syrup and shattered glass on the floor, I contemplated for at least 60 seconds on how I could save it . . . considered licking it up (LOL), but the glass scared me. LOL Kevin, you are so right. It really is the best syrup ever! The only place I’ve been able to find it is in a small grocery store in Pine Hill, Alabama.

I grew up on cane patch syrup also. It is delish on homemade biscuits. Once when Grampa, ran out of table sugar, he sweetened our iced tea with it. Good golly that was some good tea! Preservation of all the good things we grew up on is a must. Don't change the formula (like coke did), but stay true to original. Oldies are Goldies, just like cane patch. Oh Yeah!
