Always read the labels

If you saw our post from yesterday, you know not all honey is created equal.🍯

And when it comes to buying honey off grocery store shelves, how can you tell if you’re buying real honey?

The simple answer is to read the label! Look for country of origin, look for the ingredients list, and if there are additional countries behind “USA,” or additional ingredients behind “honey,” we’d encourage you to make a different selection.

What can YOU do about the jar of honey saying things like “natural,” and “pure,” on the front but telling a different story on the back? Get our app and document it! 📲

The AHPA App is a quick way to document that misleading label and helps build a case against the use of misleading/confusing labels.

Misleading labels and honey that might not be what it claims to be is a real problem. But now, you can start making a difference!✨
