The EU uncovers the contamination of honey packaged in the UK with cheap sugar syrup
The European Commission has uncovered the contamination of honey packaged in the United Kingdom with cheap sugar syrup.
This is not the first time that tests have indicated that UK shoppers may be victims of honey fraud. However, supermarkets say they regularly test honey and audit supply lines. UK government investigation Olaf said such practices defraud consumers and put honest producers in jeopardy as they face unfair competition from operators who can slash prices thanks to illicit, cheap ingredients.
She suggested that shoppers should choose honey that states the country of origin on the label and ideally source it from traditional local beekeepers.
