fatfather Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 In Europe honey have to contain min. 20% real natural honey to be allowed to be labeled as "natural honey". So what's wrong with 80% sugar in Thailand? Fatfather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaidDown Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Just, half hour ago a dealer in our village want sale punched honey! Well I haven't a clue what that means, but honey is basically all sugar, in fact a spoonful of sugar is as sweet as a spoonful of granulated sugar. Do you want non sweet honey by any chance ?? Everything seems to give you a problem here in Thailand. Maybe it's written in the rules somewhere that people entering the country with a Passboard are given a specially hard time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JurgenG Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 An ex GF of mine had a way of checking the quality of the honey. I don't remember exactly how she did it but she was filtering the "honey" through a piece of cloth and according to the result could say the % of sugar in it.

blossombkk Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I usually buy "organic honey" for 350-400 tb. When buying you should see if it begins to crystallize. A 100% honey should crystallize in cold temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loong Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I buy honey in Tescos that is labelled 100% pure honey. Tastes right, but I wouldn't know for sure. http://thairichyhoney.shopdd.in.th/product/1_0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary A Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 A quick easy way to check if honey is pure is to dip a small piece of cloth in it and light it on fire. Genuine honey will burn while that which is mixed with cane syrup will sputter and pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 100% honey should crystallize in cold temperatures. Quite right, my own honey (from my own bees) does sometimes crystallise, in the fridge. IME the sellers-of-fake-honey sometimes throw in a couple of dead-bees, or a scrap of honeycomb, to add authenticity to their suspiciously-cheap syrup with caramelised-colour product !

I Learn something new every day. Thanks Naam. I thought a "punched honey" was a Pattaya gal being disciplined by her pimp. I love honey and I'm looking forward to getting back to Canada where we have many flavours of honey depending on the flowers the bees have been pollinating. Honey is one of the few foods that never need refrigeration and it never goes bad. There have been cases of 1000 year old honey being found and it's still edible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
