Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Read an email sent by Well Done, article about think twice before buying grocery story honey. The article said look for the label “True Source Certified,” (Well Done article sent February 16, 2018). I checked out numerous online stores; I saw one on Amazon.com (could be more) that said True Source Certified, and that is Bee Harmony. The price is okay for 12 oz. ($10.49). The taste is great, I only needed to use a small amount, learned the hard way with the first time purchase Bee Harmony on February 20, 2018, I used more than necessary. How Bee Harmony package for delivery is like how mother would wrap her child for a cold winter day, taking great care; I will purchase again. Below is some part of the article. Why You Should Think Twice Before Buying Grocery Store Honey What to Know When Shopping for Honey Because there are few regulations and several loopholes surrounding honey production and labeling, it can be difficult to know if the sweet stuff you see on your grocery store shelf is actually authentic, explains Hultin. That said there are certain keywords that can help steer you in the right direction. For starters, avoid the term “ultra-filtrated” because that means the original source of the honey is not traceable. Also, don’t be fooled by the name “pure honey.” It’s not a meaningful description, explains Hultin, and doesn’t prevent against a contaminated product. Instead, look for the label “True Source Certified,” which indicates that the honey was voluntarily traced using a third party auditing system. Price can also be a tip-off. “Producing real honey is a time and resource-intensive process and the costs will reflect that,” says Largeman-Roth. “You shouldn’t expect to pay just a few dollars for a jar of honey.” Perhaps you’re best—and safest—bet is to purchase honey from a local farmer. “You can ask them about their bees and harvesting practices which will help ensure that you are getting the real deal,” says Hultin.
