Auggie, If it is like the sugar cane I'm used to it would be too big for one thing.   Pat

It does taste good. I can remember when I was a kid, Grandpa would grow a patch of sugar cane and make molasses every year. He had one of those molasses mills that you hook the mule to and let it walk around in circles all day turning the gears to squeeze the juice out of the cane. We used to always grab a handful of cane stalks and sit around chewin' on them.
