Louisiana is also a sugar producing state, When I was young almost every other town along the Missisipi river had a sugar mill, All were powderd by steam engines. All roads leading south & west from BR run through sugar cane fields. This one is just across the river from BR

Okay, thanks for the info. Now I'm confused. LOL
The Domino brown sugar I use......is it sprayed white sugar or some natural colored sugar as a result of a process?
 
Think most of it is white sugar mixed with mollases. Seems like C&H is one of the few which has real brown sugar which comes from the factory thataway..or nearly swear I read that factoid somewhere. All the old recipe substitution guides say if you aint got any brown sugar and need some mix 3/4 cup white sugar with 1/4 cup mollases and then you got some.
