Two, for sure, because you can get the general concept through some minor deductive reasoning - like, even if you don't know that cupcakes get made by baking, specifically, you can see that the way that the cake sticks to the wrapper shows that the wrapper was in place BEFORE the cake became cake.

Three, on the other hand, while it might get you laughed out of New England, gets a pass in my mind because there are lots of places where what you put on pancakes/other breakfast foods is just called syrup and it's a fairly industrial thing that might have had contact with a plant at one point, but is definitely at some remove when it gets to your table. Maple syrup, therefore, is likely to get classed as just one more type of flavored syrup, like blueberry or strawberry or pumpkin. I, personally, was never in danger of being this person, since I have relatives in Vermont and probably first watched a maple tree being tapped before I was old enough to say its name, let alone do anything else to it myself, but thinking that this is just something everybody should know greatly discounts the influence of the industrial food production system.
