What illegal drug looks like molasses after its smoked and then it turns rock hard?

I don't think I've ever actually seen molasses, so I may be wrong, but I think you are talking about heroin. I have heard of China White heroin and black tar heroin, but the only heroin I've ever seen was neither white nor black: it was a very fine, dry powder that was a tan/beige color (very, very light brown).

Anyway, after smoking this heroin (freebasing it off of tin foil, actually) it would turn into a very, very dark brown, almost black-looking substance that was rock-hard.

Why does your molasses taste bitter?

Molasses comes from sugar cane juice. The sugar in the juice is crystallized and removed. What is left is the other components of the (now cooked) juice. If you were to remove the sugar from tomato juice or citrus juice, you would notice the other flavor components of the juice, including bitter compounds. (I don't think molasses is all THAT bitter, myself. I do notice strong anise notes.)

What is blackstrap molasses and what is the price and where can you purchase it?

The thick viscous syrup we call blackstrap molasses that provides the robust bittersweet flavor to baked beans and gingerbread is available throughout the year.

Blackstrap molasses is just one type of molasses, the dark liquid byproduct of the process of refining sugar cane into table sugar. It is made from the third boiling of the sugar syrup and is therefore the concentrated byproduct left over after the sugar's sucrose has been crystallized.

The truth behind the phrase "slow as molasses" becomes apparent when you reflect on molasses's thick, viscous, syrupy texture. Featuring a robust bittersweet flavor, blackstrap molasses helps create the distinctive taste of dishes such as baked beans and gingerbread. Blackstrap molasses is very dark in color, having a black-brown hue.

How can you remove the excess flem on your vocal cords It seems as if they are covered with molasses?

My son who is 15, had a chronic flemm formation in his throat. I used Guaiphenesin and a decongestant to some relief. I also used chewable Calcium tablets and a laxative (once to cleanse his stomach). The Neti-pot has helped him the most. Though it sounds difficult to use, it is not at all cumbersome. Read the instructions and follow exactly.

How much does liquid feed molasses cost?

These products are based on molasses, which has a dry matter of 75%. As the component ingredients, including water, are added the dry matter begins to fall, usually to 55%-60%.

The products are sold on a cost per litre delivered so they have to be converted to a cost per kilogram for accurate comparison.

For example, 1 litre of a 55% dry matter molasses based product will be approximately 1.2 times the weight of 1 litre of water. So each litre costing 65c will cost 54.2c/kg ($533 ÷ 1.2 kg) or each tonne is $542 'wet'.

But the moisture content must be accounted for. In this example, if the moisture content is 55%, the dry matter cost for each tonne ($542 ÷ 0.55) becomes $985/t dry matter.

For an 8% urea content liquid supplement, eaten at 1 litre/day, this means 80 grams of urea costs 65¢ to deliver into the animal each day. In addition this cost supplies approximately 0.5 litres of molasses (or 6 MJ of energy) and the mineral additives. This is not a useful amount of energy, which is why you need more than 1200 kg DM of pasture to supply the source of energy (carbohydrate).

How did colonists react to the molasses act?

The Revenue Act of 1764, also known as the Sugar Act was passed by Parliament, because it reduced the duties on imported sugar and other products imported from other places outside of the British Empire.

However, smugglers were able to avoid the earlier duties. To ensure that this tax would now be collected, and to stamp out smuggling, the act placed several courts in the major American seaports.

These courts had no juries. Naval judges examined evidence, weighed guilt, and passed sentence. The system was simple and effective.

The colonists didn't like any taxes that King George III placed upon them. It would eventually take the American Revolutionary War to put a stop it.

What kinds of homemade candies can be made with blackstrap molasses?

Why do you think that British officials rarely carried out th molasses act?

The Molasses Act imposed a stiff import duty on non-British imports of molasses into the US. The Act had been drawn up for the benefit and profit margins and under much pressure of the British West Indies plantation owners.

Since this would have severely damaged much of the US colonies' rum-making and export industry and its flourishing trade with the countries they imported the molasses from, the US colonists strongly opposed the Act and started an extensive smuggling network for non-British molasses. The British government on the other hand did not stand to benefit financially by enforcing the Act; any profit would have gone to the already extremely rich sugar barons in the West Indies.

Faced with the practical impossibility to control the smuggling and with no financial interest of their own to protect, the local British officials - for whom moreover local prosperity was much more important than that of some far-away islands - decided not to press the issue.
