How to check the naturalness of honey?

Girls and boys, but how to check the naturalness of honey? How to choose it when buying? Honey fairs will open soon in Moscow .....

And did anyone buy honey in non-specialized stores, about ordinary ones ("Pyatorochka", "Perekrestok") such as in small jars, in the store you can stumble upon natural honey or is there just diluted colored sugar?

[Zebra]

Zebra, I myself toil with these questions, the only thing I know from the telecast is that the low price of honey in stores does not mean a fake, supposedly honey is bought from private traders at low wholesale prices in large volumes, and therefore it is sold cheaper than in the markets.

how to check the naturalness of honey?

Tanechka, this issue has been discussed more than once in the topic Honey: benefits and harms

More Honey - what it can be, how to choose, how to check, properties and application

In Lyudochka theme Bees love honey very much, if my memory serves me, we also discussed.

in the store can you stumble upon natural honey?

There is a chance It also happens ...

Honey fairs will open soon in Moscow .....

With these fairs, you can buy anything, both real and forged ... My husband specially goes to be curious every year in the fall to our St. Petersburg AgroRus, and what you will not see there. This year, I was surprised by a new marketing move: "honey from swarm bees", hzyaev could not explain "and what?" Well otroilis, well, they caught and they gave honey, "and what?"
It is impossible to remotely determine the real honey or not. Better not to take cream honey, not to take honey with additives. Take something easier and what you like, be sure to try!
Here, in Len. the region, for example, there is no sunflower honey, but I love it so much, only my husband brings me from the fair, by the way, he is one of the cheapest, but this year he did not bring everything that he tried, he didn’t like
And in general, from my point of view, when they say lime honey, or raspberry honey, they are cunning ... well, it is very difficult to get monofloral honey, that is, honey from one type of plant, but meadow, forest honey is at least an honest name ..
none of us, even the most experienced beekeeper, can be 100% sure where the bees brought honey from
Here we have lindens, a huge amount, but we never had linden honey, one might say because of lindens and bees, but such a bummer

Crown, Crochet, Mandraik Ludmila, thanks, I will study.
As for trying, I'm not sure if I can pinpoint the correctness of the honey. Now, if, for example, as with cottage cheese and iodine, it dripped, turned blue, it means there is starch, or with butter: put a piece on a plate at room temperature, droplets of water come out - there are vegetable fats.
Where to put honey and what to drop ...

Here! These are the very words, Marta! (C) I can imagine how buckwheat or alfalfa honey is obtained there - such fields exist. But where we have so many linden forests to produce as much linden honey as we sell it has always been interesting.

Lena, so I'm wondering We have one year!!!! The bees worked on linden for a couple of days, but this is just an addition to the total number, and so there are bumblebees and hornets, or even bee flies, well, bees do not go to linden - the sugar content of nectar is not enough, and this year it did not bloom at all - the whole color rotted away, there was nothing even to collect for tea
This year the Leningrad region received at least a little honey, but it is not marketable - it is foaming with a hat, from all our friends (and strangers). We know about ourselves, we don't add anything, we only take sealed and not sprinkled honey, we don't sell it to anyone, but the honey "put on" a hat, but it's insanely tasty, this has never happened, and it may never be

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, Luda, what does the cream of honey look like? I've never heard of this

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, well, if very roughly, then it looks like a crystallized one, but at the same time it pours viscously. Usually, this is how they write cream honey, in principle it is ordinary honey, only "whipped"

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, it's whipped honey. Sometimes with additives - nuts phat, dried fruits ... We even have Temka.
