Bless the free market, making everything better!
This is why I source my honey from local bees. It’s tough to crack open each bee but genuine honey is worth it!
You can toast the bee shells in the oven.
What is an authenticity test? Illegally spiked honey?
Edit: Illegally spiked honey.
So it’s basically sugar syrup.
Maple flavored syrup
This happens everywhere, not just the UK. Buy local honey.
Or no honey
I mean, it makes sense. A lot of these retailers have their operations based in places that should be legitimately terrible for producing their specific products. Faking it is all they have.
Not seen this come up in a while, apparently olive oil is full of fakes too.
The real fucked up part is how bees assemble dangerous chemicals from a wide zone around where they live. So if the farm is near pesticides, they will be collected too. Studies showed that almost all honey is contaminated this way
So basically, unless you’re buying honey yourself from some very remote sources, it’s not the good stuff
Now wait until you read about fake olive oils and their mafias…
Apparently that’s why there is no organic honey produced in the UK. You need to be a certain distance away from land that is sprayed with chemicals to get organic certification for your honey and nowhere in the UK is that far away.
Those damn bees are scamming us!
as addictive as cocaine and just as stepped on
