When conditions are poor, such as you are going into winter and the honey stores are in sufficed for a colony to survive until spring, you feed the bees sugar water and high operating feed HFCS.

However, a good beekeeper will pull the feeder off the hive and wait a while before adding a honey super.

The big operations will keep feeding the bees and sell the honey produced from HFCS.

Is there any way to tell that from the label? If it’s at a farmer’s market, for instance, could it still be like that?
There is a local organic store that sells honey from a vat (weighed out) - I hope it’s good.

Fukushima radiation poisoning may be the root cause of immune deficiencies. The US fallout started in 2011 is receding but the Pacific ocean is now getting blasted worse than ever before. Lots of dead things washing up on the shores.

Bees die on flowers with radioactive fallout:
