[Sandman77]

Just, half hour ago a dealer in our village want sale punched honey!

My gf bought one time before, and say not buy 80 prozent sugar inside!

I bought honey on many places in Thailand also rayong fruit garden but I never found any real original honey!

[lemoncake]

you are the only poster on Thai Visa who seem to have a problem with EVERYTHING, now even honey

[phuturatica]

Someone call the honey police!

Better not, because honey police might come in un -ironed uniform and then another thread "why police not iron the uniform"

[fatfather]

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?

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.

If you want real honey, look for the stalls where they sell the Honeycombs

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.

I had a honey when I was 17. She was 90% sugar. Those were the days.

What's the price of sugar these days?

Depends on where you pick up your honey and how much suggary you want her to be...

Leave him alone, I'm enjoying his contribs to TVF. Much more fun than reading how wonderful it is all over here.

"punched honey" is "Austrian-English" derived from the German word "gepantscht" meaning "adulterated mix".

by the way, i don't understand that quite a number of people fall for the silly questions of this troll and waste their time.

Forget the honey and spend your money your on some english lessons

Thanks for the info. Learn something new everyday. So his troll post was not completely wasted..

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.

[loong]

I buy honey in Tescos that is labelled 100% pure honey.

Tastes right, but I wouldn't know for sure.

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.

Who cares as long as it tastes good

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 ! But you can taste the difference ! Caveat emptor !

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.

What are the health benifits of eating honey daily?

[tw25rw]

Honey is about 80% sugar. It's normal. I would take it up with the bees if you aren't happy.

Your teeth rot quicker and it helps the dentist industry.

Seemingly endless price spikes have been claimed hereabouts, so I've read...the likes some of which appear to have no limits.

Can I do this in the supermarket before committing to my purchase?

No money no honey
