dark corn syrup = dark Karo syrup Notes: This corn syrup has a mild molasses flavor, and it's a common ingredient in barbecue sauce, Pecan Pie,Substitutes: simple syrup (make with 2 parts sugar and 1 part water) OR Combine 3 parts light corn syrup plus 1 part molasses OR golden syrup

The pecan pie I make has no flour except in the crust. I use the recipe on the back of the Karo syrup bottle. Which raises another health issue ...
