Thieves in the Canadian province of Quebec may have pulled off the sweetest heist of all time, siphoning off a reservoir of maple syrup from a warehouse and cleverly covering up their caper to evade detection, an industry group said on Friday.
The warehouse in rural Quebec held more than C$30 million ($30.4 million) worth of maple syrup, a whopping 10 million pounds of the amber pancake topping.

​

:laugh2: at "global strategic reserve" of maple syrup.

Pretty funny that they targeted something you wouldn't think would be all that valuable.

But what do they do with it now?

It's a bulk type item so it might not be all that hard to sell. A lot of thieves who steal pharmaceuticals end up selling it to legitimate dealers because they don't know who they're buying from. When you're a big company looking for the absolute cheapest materials, you buy from dealers who may be getting stuff from wherever.
