MOLASSES

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 652 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MIC-MOL
MOLASSES , the syrup obtained from the drainings of raw
sugar
  or from
sugar
  during the process of refining. In American usage the word usually applies to both forms of the syrup, but in
English
  usage the second form is more usually known as " treacle " (see SUGAR). The word, which in early forms appears as melasses, molassos, &c., is from the Port. mela4o, or Fr. melasse, cf. the
Late
  Lat. mellaceum, syrup made from honey (mel). The
geological
 
term
  " molasse " must be distinguished; this word, applied to the soft greenish
sandstone
  of the
district
  between the Jura and the Alps, is
French
 , meaning " soft," Lat. mollis.
