and for years as a child i thought the pimentos were part of the olive lol, that's all we had growing up because my grandma liked putting them in her martinis. i personally do not buy them with pimentos if i can avoid it but i don't mind em
extremely context-dependent. maple cookies and molasses cookies are extremely different but equally delicious things. you could not pay me to put molasses on waffles or maple in shoofly pie though.
Molasses on waffles and pancakes would be my go to context, yeah. I like the bitterness and the way it soaks in, I rarely use syrup because it's all sticky (yes i do realise molasses is also sticky but its less sticky)
