BTW we charge £5 per 1lb / 454g jar if we sell honey at local events and we cover our costs with no great profits.
An empty honey jar costs us around 40p.
If you want to help the honey bees then by all means plant suitable flowers, but you could also support your local beekeepers by buying honey directly from them or at farmers markets etc..
Thank you for bearing with. Hot deal , but I won't be buying any.:wink:

A blend of EU and non EU honeys...nothing pure...

I suspected this too.
A lot of non-EU honeys (e.g. some Chinese honey)
are impure or completely fake (e.g. some kind of syrup like high fructose corn syrup).
Do you know of any brands or ways of knowing
if a honey product is 100% pure?
Will the real honey please stand up,
please stand up,
please stand up. :wink:

I don't understand why something can be considered impure because it is a blend of EU and non EU honey. This is honey and nothing else. My dictionary says 'Pure - not mixed or adulterated with any other substance or material' which is exactly what this is. Same sort of mentality as a kipper!

I wonder if the non EU is british (thinking ahead) :smile:
funny
but this just happened to me today too
treat my lot to a lovely looking slab in my local indian store
it looked like honeycomb in a tray of honey
i didnt think to check its ingredient list
it said honey on the label so i guess i believed it was honey
you know what i mean
then gets it back home
reads the label properly
blimmin glucose fructose. with ten percent honey
ouch
expensive mistake and one disappointed me
paid 3 quid only last week for pure unpasteurised is it? as in as it comes , with all of the honey nutrients you would expect
lesson learned, read every label....
