Does molasses go bad?

It makes a great enema, but you already knew that.

Eat it, if you throw up, throw it away then.

Sugar is practically antiseptic, it is so hard for bugs to grow in it.

Molasses might just have enough good stuff in it to let a bug or two grow.

PS: You must take life a little easier - if molasses drives you crazy, many, many things will be a real big problem for you.

Breathe slowly - relax...molasses is nothing to get your knickers in a twist about.

Dearie me - these weird guys are so SENSITIVE!

Sounds like a sticky situation gus.

Some honey found in ancient Egyptian tombs was still edible, if a little sugary. Go ahead and eat a little and get back to those of us who also have very, very old molasses in our cupboards. If we don't hear from you soon, we'll know not to save ours.

Another thing to contemplate--if honey ages so well, just think what molasses might do for you. Who knows, you might become another Estee Lauder! Add a little swamp gas and go with it Gus.

And, if it's good, you can mix a coupla spoons into your milk - a tasty, if interesting, drink.

I thought molasses grew mould on it after a few years? Or is that only fruit jams, in jars which have been already opened?
I will conduct an experiment. Contact me in five years.

Well, that settles it. If McTag is still well-preserved in five years, we will all know that molasses has preservative qualities. I will get to meet McTag in early May, so I can give you a report of how he looks at present. Maybe we all can agree that one of us will check on McTag for the next few years to see if there is any improvement.

As for Gus, who could tell the difference? Is there a swamp lady anywhere in the neighborhood?

Gus, did you ever warm the jar and use it as a sex toy? Because then it might go bad.
