Blackstrap molasses I drink every day. I've learned it holds anemia at bay. One tablespoon quick stirred up with almond milk (a scant cup) makes my red blood cells cheer. Hip hip hooray! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nancy Jones October 30, 2011 for Francine Roberts' Pick a Beverage, any Beverage contest

Yes, I have heard of many wondrous things about molasses. I used to collect phamplets that gave all sorts of useful info on many of our common food products, herbs, etc. Congrats on a great win!
