Wholesome Organic Blackstrap Molasses, 16 oz, 1-Pack

Nice and thick. ORGANIC! Good molasses flavor and at great price compared to non organic blackstrap in the gallon jugs.

I love molasses and was raised drinking molasses and milk at bedtime, so this product feels both nostalgic and beneficial. The taste is bold and rich, and it’s loaded with nutrients your body actually uses. Blackstrap molasses is a natural source of iron which can support energy and help with low iron levels, calcium and magnesium which are essential for strong bones, and potassium which helps with muscle function and heart health. It even has antioxidant properties that fight free radicals. I also use it in my garden and it works wonders. Molasses feeds the beneficial microbes in the soil, which helps roots take up nutrients more effectively. It adds natural carbohydrates that keep soil life thriving. For cannabis growers especially, it can boost yields, enhance terpene profiles for better flavor, and keep plants healthier through flower. This brand is consistently high quality and organic, which gives me peace of mind. It’s tasty in the kitchen and powerful in the garden. Highly recommend!

Bottles foil inner cap seals are VERY POOR - 2 of 3 bottles leaked in shipping. The third bottle seal was broken also but the contents hadn't leaked YET.... When I first received the original shipment of 2 bottles, I thought only one bottle had leaked all over the inside of the Amazon shipping box, so I only requested one bottle to be replaced. When I opened the second bottle, I realized its seal was also leaking.... But it was too late to request a replacement of the 2nd bottle. When I received the replacement bottle, the inner seal was also broken but it hadn't leaked out yet. I would NOT trust this product if you are going to consume it or use it in baking. You have no way of knowing if the contents are contaminated or not. Luckily I only bought this product to use to soak the rust off some tools.

Blackstrap molasses has become a beloved staple in my kitchen, and I am thrilled to share the many reasons why I consider it a true superfood.

Beyond its culinary appeal, blackstrap molasses is a nutritional powerhouse. Packed with essential minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, and potassium, it serves as a natural and wholesome way to boost nutrient intake. As someone mindful of their diet, incorporating blackstrap molasses has been a delicious and effective way to supplement my daily nutritional needs. I particularly appreciate blackstrap molasses for its potential health benefits. Its iron content is notable, making it a fantastic choice for individuals seeking to support healthy blood production. Additionally, it is a source of antioxidants and has been associated with potential anti-inflammatory properties, contributing to overall well-being. Furthermore, blackstrap molasses has become my go-to natural sweetener. Its lower glycemic index compared to refined sugars makes it a healthier option for those mindful of their sugar intake. The depth of its flavor allows for a reduction in the overall sugar content in recipes without compromising on taste. Lastly, sourcing high-quality blackstrap molasses is a breeze, and its long shelf life ensures it stays a reliable pantry staple.

Finally tried out the molasses with the traditional New Year dinner including cornbread. We mix molasses with a big glop of butter until it's smooth, then slather it on the cornbread (or biscuits---it's a southern thing). The molasses are rich and have a strong robust flavor with a bit of tang, a bit of smoke. I know this molasses will make wonderful gingerbread and especially baked beans. So glad I took a chance! Very good purchase!

really good!

Everyone has a different reason for wanting to use molasses, especially for that added jolt of 750mg of potassium. Me? I’ve been using it successfully to avoid extreme anemia and also for old-fashioned ginger cookies which I adore. On the Wholesome Sweeteners site, they offer up one by Chef Malika Ameen, which I’ve included below. There’s a decent jolt of iron in the Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Molasses at 15%. I was at the docs again yesterday and so far I’ve been avoiding those specialized iron shots. A tablespoon away seems to be doing the trick. This molasses does have a strong taste, but that’s to be expected with blackstrap molasses. I’m finding that it’s not only good for iron intake, but also a nice little energy booster. Cookies not so much so, but good for an emotional boost. I do like the fact that it’s Fairtrade Certified in addition to being USDA certified. It’s so much better than having to take pills or, worse yet, get shots.

Got this yesterday and made peanut butter cookies and added this in... Umm, yes please. Neighbor sure seemed to love the taste. Don't people know to add molasses to alot of the things you make or bake... It makes them taste even better. NOW, THE KEY IS....buy this unsulphered kind for sweetness and if you don't and just buy the regular molasses, it will be on the bitter side. Yep, there are two kinds of molasses (which I just found out) to buy and depending if you want it sweet or bitter. Anyways, yummy! Great price for 32 ounces. I bought two because I add it to everything, ginger snaps and pancakes and PButter cookies and PB sandwiches & ice cream...it's endless... Will buy again when needed for sure. Expiration date is way ahead in time too. Quick Shipping!
