I never buy the "honey" from a store, its not honey anymore even if it was at the begining. China superfilters honey or corn syrup untill the benifits are gone and it is adulterated with lead/heavy metals and antibiotics and who knows what else? In Europe if the honey cannot be fingerprinted(the pollen can tell you where honey is from) it is not allowed to be sold anywhere. The US should be doing the same thing to protect our honey producers!! Real honey has medical benifits that jus are being found- but it takes real honey!!! I buy locally from our farmers/beekeepers. ZLove to try out your honey when you get going!

Jarrah honey. Marshall, when you have enough to sell, let us know! Good luck.

Jarrah honey. Pasteurizing destroys all the enzymes, changing honey from a very healthy food to something akin to corn syrup. Also note that almost ALL major brand honey such as Kroger and Sioux Bee is not real honey any more. Honey is the second most adulterated food, just behind milk. Buy at farmer's market or local beekeeper if you can, but unfortunately use of poisons in the beehives is now so widespread, it can be difficult to find a source that has real pure honey. I am starting a beehive in about 10 days, and to avoid poisons can not even use comb foundation any more, it is all made from poisoned wax, so I am having to go foundationless and have them draw out their own comb. That is the only way I can be sure I am getting pure unadulterated honey. Marshall On 3/20/2013 10:19 AM, Neville Munn wrote: >Thanks for that Rowena.
