Buy Organic Honey - Honey is number three in the list of the world's most faked foods, based on research by the Food Fraud Initiative (FFI) of Michigan State University. Commercially processed honey commonly on sale in supermarkets can contain antibiotics harmful to humans such as chloramphenicol. Supermarket honey is also heat-treated to high temperatures in a process known as pasteurisation. Pasteurisation kills any beneficial nutrients in the honey such as bacteria and enzymes. In recent years organic honey has become very popular as consumers are realising the value of organic honey to their health and wellbeing.
What is organic honey and how do you recognise natural organic honey?
Organic honey is honey which has been independently certified that it was produced in a beehive without any artificial chemical sources in a 5 to 8 mile radius. This means that there where no factories, roads, houses, pesticides or anything which could have contaminated the flowers with artificial chemicals. It is not possible to produce organic honey in England because it is not possible to obtain this 5 to 8 mile radius exclusion zone around the beehive. Local honey produced in England might be raw but it is not organic. It is an offence to label or market a honey as organic if it has not been certified organic by a government authorised organic control body. Any honey marked organic must have the code and logo of the organic certifying body e.g. GB-ORG-04, clearly marked on the label otherwise it is not organic.
