Fruit Syrup

Can we talk about the fact that there is actually a thing called fruit syrup. Like I was the only person that had never even heard of this stuff. Everyone was talking about putting on their pancakes instead of regular maple syrup. I'm not good with change and I actually want to cry because what even is this. Apparently this stuff is popular because everyone but a select few people know what it is. Also who just decided to make this stuff one day because I need to have a talk about how long the stuff has actually been around. Then I was told that it was sort of like jam but it's not actually jam which is also sketchy. I don't approve of whatever this monstrosity is.
