Aunt Jemima's Original Lite Syrup

Can't have waffles without syrup! This was good. You know, I always debate getting actual maple syrup, which tastes way better but also costs like 11$ for the smallest container. I can never rationalize it to myself so I always end up with Auntie J's or Mrs. B's and I think I'll hate it, but then I realise that I grew up with this stuff and I like it just fine (even though it gets really sticky and I feel like a big sticky garbage can afterwards). It was quite sweet, but that's to be expected in a syrup. It did the job. We can't complain.

Cost: 6/10 (About 3.50$)

Aunt Jemima Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle mix

Today was a big day, so I kinda just wanted to chill with some waffles. Enter Aunt Jemima, the only waffle mix without nuts in it at my store. Not sure how I feel about the branding, but it is what it is. I mixed these up as directed, with just water and oil, and popped it in the waffle maker. Unfortunately I haven't yet mastered the art of the waffle maker, and they came out pretty limp and wet. I don't THINK this is the fault of the mix, but I can't be sure. Assuming it isn't, the taste was fine, just like any other AJ product, frozen or not. Not hotel quality (woe) but fine, especially with syrup.

Aunt Jemima - Whole Grain French Toast

"Great", I thought to myself, "whole grain french toast! it probably tastes the same and is way healthier!" Guess what, you guys? It doesn't taste the same. I don't care how healthy this is (probably not very, since I poured xtra syrup on these suckers), they taste so bad it just isn't worth it. Essentially, they taste like plain crispy wheat bread -- no french toastyness whatsoever. Hmm! Delish! Won't buy again.
