Honey (ie, bee food)

If you use honey, you should buy it from local producers. If you buy commercial honey, there's a good chance that what you think is honey has been adulterated with sugar syrup.

Briana drinks honey in her tea. We buy it from the local fruit stand down the hill. It's more expensive, but it's real. The food warehouse that I managed back in the aughts wholesaled honey from Island of the Moon, and we were apparently their only distributor. When we were going out of business, I gave them our customer list of accounts that regularly bought their stuff, and a quick Google search shows that they are still in business.

Chai, Black tea, honey, milk, cinnamon, cardamon, clove. served warm
and has great nose for a cold night like tonight. The honey is important
as cheap or sugar alters it.

I noticed that the honey I have been buying lately doesn't crystalize like the others did before and that's a sign of honey with added sweeteners to stretch it out.

They could try honesty. Just as people accept "frozen dairy desert" as ice cream, they would accept honey blends or whatever they might be called as long as they were cheaper and nobody would be deceived. From the article, it sounds like testing for adulterated honey isn't easy, but if they can cross that bridge it's probably the way to go. Expensive honey along side of honey blends. Take your pick.
