Some generic productions are okay but the cheapo 'as good as' Karo is truly
Awful. I've used plain old Blackburn syrup with success. Only time I
believe clear Karo is needed is with making divinity. I'm going to try
Bob's idea and cook the filling on the stove top a little to give it a
headstart. Can't find a recipe that does this but it makes such good sense.
