Episode 180 - The Sweet Stuff

We're bouncing back from some bumps in the road this week, and bring you a short and sweet episode about some of the history and archaeology of two sweet substances--maple syrup and sugarcane. Show notes coming soon!

Also: CORRECTION!! In the episode, Anna says that maple syrup is made from the phloem sap of a maple tree. It’s actually the XYLEM! Sorry, tree scientists!
