Where Is Molasses in Grocery Stores? Solved

Where Is Molasses in Grocery Stores?

In most grocery stores, you’ll find molasses in either the baking aisle or the cereal aisle.

If you don’t find molasses in either of those places, a less common area that some stores may use to stock molasses is the spice aisle, by the boxed puddings.

Following are details about where to find molasses in three national chain stores.

Walmart

Walmart stocks molasses in the baking aisle near the sugar and other sweeteners, customer service representatives we spoke with at Walmart locations in New York, Pennsylvania, Kansas, and Arizona said.

Usually, you’ll find molasses right by the corn syrup in the baking aisle, and it’s often stocked on the top shelf.

Kroger

If you shop at Kroger, you’ll typically find molasses in the cereal aisle near the maple syrup.

We spoke with customer service associates at Kroger locations in Louisiana, Pennsylvania, and Virginia to verify this information.

Safeway

Similar to Kroger, Safeway stores stock molasses along with the pancake syrup in the cereal aisle, associates from stores in Idaho, California, and Nevada told us.

One representative mentioned that molasses is usually found on the top shelves by the syrup.
