"More than three-fourths of the honey sold in U.S. grocery stores isn't exactly what the bees produce, according to testing done exclusively for Food Safety News.....

Food Safety News decided to test honey sold in various outlets after its earlier investigation found U.S. groceries flooded with Indian honey banned in Europe as unsafe because of contamination with antibiotics, heavy metal and a total lack of pollen which prevented tracking its origin.....

The FDA -- either because of lack of interest or resources -- devoted little effort to inspecting imported honey. Nevertheless, the agency had occasionally either been told of, or had stumbled upon, Chinese honey contaminated with chloramphenicol and other illegal animal antibiotics which are dangerous, even fatal, to a very small percentage of the population."

We all live within a GIANT electromagnetic, hyper dimensional, quantum virtual bhater that literally responds to our emotional body and plays back to us that which we are. Choose the right vibrations to play back :D
And as for you and me.... the shifts in the masses collective consciousness continue to increase in amplitude, we can guarantee that the world will be a very different place in 10 years, 5 years, even 2 years. There are a multitude of Urgent, Critical and Crucial issues which our species and the Governing Structures of our Planet must confront.
It is time for this species to really get down to putting some thought into what our continued behavior will manifest as the future unfolds. If we allow ourselfs to run rampant and continue along the pathway that we are headed, we will short circuit this process and completely annihilate our entire developed level of civilization.

It is now time for you to begin to come together and put everything out into the open and on the table.

3/4 of what's sold is FAKE and chemical-laden. Read the full story using link above.


"More than three-fourths of the honey sold in U.S. grocery stores isn't exactly what the bees produce, according to testing done exclusively for Food Safety News.....

Food Safety News decided to test honey sold in various outlets after its earlier investigation found U.S. groceries flooded with Indian honey banned in Europe as unsafe because of contamination with antibiotics, heavy metal and a total lack of pollen which prevented tracking its origin.....

The FDA -- either because of lack of interest or resources -- devoted little effort to inspecting imported honey. Nevertheless, the agency had occasionally either been told of, or had stumbled upon, Chinese honey contaminated with chloramphenicol and other illegal animal antibiotics which are dangerous, even fatal, to a very small percentage of the population."

 Quoting: telling it straight


Its called ultrafiltering which takes out the pollen. Best thing to do is put the honey in the freezer...if it doesnt freeze its good...also go with the honey that has the comb in it...i just researched this today lol.

Re: Beware of fake Chinese Honey--Hazardous to your health!!!
I bought some cashews in a can from Walmart the other day. The ingredients listed were nuts, oil, salt, etc. It said the nuts were grown in Brazil and processed in China? You wonder what kind of oil they used in the Chinese processing? (they did have kind of an odd fishy smell?)

You wouldn't think it would be economic to ship nuts from South America to China to be processed and canned, then shipped to Canada and sold for $2.97 a can? I frankly would avoid food made in China, but you must read the labels. You might be surprised.

Many Chinese restaurants in town often substitute sugar instead of honey for their honey/garlic ribs and wings. They're still sweet so most people won't even notice.

It's best to cook your own meals from basic foods that you know the source of. Bon appetite!hayseed

I thought China was targeting the USA with their lead poisoned products but then they poisoned their own children with melamine. They are an equal opportunity poisoner.

The 2008 Chinese milk scandal was a food safety incident in the People's Republic of China, involving milk and infant formula, and other food materials and components, adulterated with melamine.

By November 2008, China reported an estimated 300,000 victims,[1] with six infants dying from kidney stones and other kidney damage, and a further 860 babies hospitalised.[2][3] The chemical appeared to have been added to milk to cause it to appear to have a higher protein content.

Natural News:

Shock finding: More than 75 percent of all 'honey' sold in grocery stores contains no honey at all, by definition

(NaturalNews) Just because those cute little bear-shaped bottles at the grocery store say "honey" on them does not necessarily mean that they actually contain honey. A comprehensive investigation conducted by Food Safety News (FSN) has found that the vast majority of so-called honey products sold at grocery stores, big box stores, drug stores, and restaurants do not contain any pollen, which means they are not real honey.

For the investigation, Vaughn Bryant, one of the nation's leading melissopalynologists, or experts in identifying pollen in honey, and director of the Palynology Research Laboratory at Texas A&M University, evaluated more than 60 products labeled as "honey" that had been purchased by FSN from ten states and the District of Columbia.

Bryant found that 76 percent of "honey" samples purchased from major grocery store chains like Kroger and Safeway, and 77 percent of samples purchased from big box chains like Sam's Club and Wal-Mart, did not contain any pollen. Even worse were "honey" samples taken from drug stores like Walgreens and CVS, and fast food restaurants like McDonald's and KFC, 100 percent of which were found to contain not a trace of pollen.

yup that is what happens when you forsake our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

This is one of the many reasons the chinks are part of the anti-Christ's army, they don't have Christ to combat the anti-Christ.
