What lowered tax on molasses to encourage payment of tax in 1764?
American importers were not paying the excessively high duty that had been placed on Sugar (molasses) by the Molasses Act of 1733. They found it cheaper to pay bribes of a penny or so per gallon, to the customs collectors. When George Grenville became Prime Minister, he had Parliament overhaul the old act with a new Sugar Act, 1764. The new act lowered the tax on sugar (molasses) entering the colonies, but it also created a new system for enforcing the act, making sure that the lowered duties would be collected. In New England, where molasses was a major trade item used in making various drinks as well as a sweetener, there was immediate concern. A Boston town meeting declared that the city would boycott (not purchase) all British imports to that colony. Other New England cities, including New York, followed Boston’s lead.

What is the use of molasses in animals as feeds?
Molasses are an easily absorbed and digested source of energy for livestock. Sugars and soluble carbohydrates account for the main value of molasses in livestock feed. However, it is also used in animal feed because it increases the palatibility of the feed and acts as a binding agent so reduces dust.
What is the density of molasses?
I am both a Ph.D. chemist and a cook. For this chemist and cook, the density of granulated sugar is 196 g per CUP. If you check the USDA web site, they round off 1 cup to 200g. I think you need to recalibrate your scale. http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
Finally, some recipes with large quantities of sugar fail to correct for the added volume of the sugar. I recall one recipe called for 8 cups of sugar with 9 cups of blueberries. Its author stated that it would yield 9 cups of preserves, which my wife later discovered to be incorrect. Using the information above, 8.0 cups of granulated sugar would increase the volume of the preserves by another 3.5 cups! The bottom line is that this recipe yielded about 12 cups of preserves, so be sure to sterilize enough containers!

How long is molasses good for after expiration date?
It is kept best in the refrigerator for a year. After a year I replace the jar regardless of how much is left (around the holidays when it is on sale again). When in doubt, toss it out.... and that applies even to items that may not spoil quickly, yet may just lose some of it's appeal after time. So, my experience says keep about 1 year in the fridge:)
Why does honey have a higher flow rate than molasses?
honey has a higher flow rate then molasses because it has less particles that are more farther apart. This means that it is faster for it to come out of the bottle. Also molasses has a much higher denisty than honey. ( Denisity ) = Heavyness
The complete expression is "slow as molasses in January going uphill without paddles". This means that something is moving or going very, very slowly, or is taking way too much time.
