Crystallized Honey is still good!!

Crystallized Honey is still good Many people think crystallized honey is no good. This is far from the truth. All good honey will crystallize with a few exceptions. I define good honey as any honey that is not over heated during the extracting or bottling process. DO NOT ADD WATER TO YOUR HONEY!!!! WATER IS THE ONLY THINK THAT CAN CAUSE HONEY TO SPOIL!!!!! If your honey is crystallized there are several ways to liquefy it. 1) If you have a warm day put it on your car dashboard. Depending on the amount in the container 2-3 hours and it will be just like the day it was bought. 2) Put in hot tap...

I can ground up some bees and wax, put it on top and double the price. 2) The honey has to bee crystallized to bee raw. Again BS. Within 4-8 weeks all my honey is crystallized in the buckets. So I can put it in a container wait 4-8 weeks and double the price. The facts 1) RAW Honey contains all the good stuff that the bees put in, Pollen, enzymes, wild...

Is this Organic Honey?

Information you need about honey The FDA does not have any standards for honey. So you can call corn syrup and water honey. There is no official definition for Local Honey or Raw Honey that I can find. Is this Organic Honey? I get this question at least once a week. Is this Organic Honey? I say, there is no such thing as Organic Honey!! The reaction from the person asking this question is usually I don’t know what I’m talking about. FACT: The bees can forage over 6000 acres. No one can control if they get sprayed with pesticides or forage on genetically altered crops so the honey can not...
