? You don't pour it from the tin you messy creature, use a spoon :-).
I prefer the tins, empty ones are so useful for storage of seeds, nails,
string etc. British garages and workshop shelves are lined with ancient
syrup tins.

I started a new tin yesterday and was amused to see it's a "limited

Which was last year. Not very limited, then...
