The Great Molasses Flood in Boston 🌊 #history #storytime #vintage

I wonder if that is why people say: “Slower than molasses in January!” Crazy!!

Not how they make molasses. The sugar comes out of the molasses. All you made was burnt caramel.

I remember learning about this in school! I always thought it was horrifying but also never knew that molasses turned to a water consistency when it got hot. So I learned something new about that incident today, thank you!

I love telling people about this bc so many people outside of massachusetts and new england just don't know about it

Watcher did the great molasses flood better imo it's called puppet history I highly recommend
