Well, I'm certainly disappointed.
Well, I'm certainly disappointed.
I see that Trader Joe’s isn’t listed.
That’s good, I have bought their honey for some time.
An interesting fact about who is on the list: 13 of the brands of honey are “store” brands (made by others and sold under the in-house brand name of a store-chain - like “Americas Choice” is the store-brand for the A&P Company). That’s almost half of the list.
It wouldn’t surprise me if some of the store-brands listed were actually produced by the same owner of some private label brand on the list, and then packaged under some store-brand label. To the extent that that is the case, the testing results in such an instance should have been combined as the results for what is actually one product.
Also, I did not see quite a few of the Honey brands I have bought; brands that were not store-brands.
I think the science on this should not extrapolate the results to the entire honey industry, unless the sample pool was larger.
A larger sample pool may, at a minimum, reduce the average result for non-pollen-content.
So, I may be missing some nutrient in my honey; my cup of tea doesn’t notice; it’s just as sweet.
Wow! Thanks for list...who knew???
