Molasses: would you use this for rum?

Local feed mill has this in bulk for less than $2 per gallon. This is the spec sheet directly from the manufacturer. Seems good...no preservative or sulphur added. Only ingredient other than cane syrup is condensed why solubles though which as a nutritionist I have no issues with but as a distiller I don't know and am asking the pros. What do you think guys?

Thanks for the go ahead! Hard to pass with that price.

Alright, it does have sulfer, phosphorus and magnesium, say's it right there on the invoice. However, I don't know if that's too much or what, would someone who knows for sure please chime in here? My feed store doesn't know it there's sulfer or not in their molasses or not, but using Pugi's recipe, wouldn't his yeast bomb overcome the effects of sulfer?

I get may molasses from the local feed store and never had problem with it. By the way I pay $1.19 a gallon

Those are not added ingredients though in this case. Naturally occurring would be much different than added.
