> Of 123 honey exporters to Europe, 70 are suspected of having adulterated their products

That sounds better than the rates I saw of good/bad extra virgin olive oil, and you can most certainly find good EVOO at a grocery store; you just need to know what brands to look for. Is there any reason to believe it isn't the same with honey? If not, then that's a pretty far cry from "If you see honey at a supermarket, no you don't, that's sugar syrup".

And similar to olive oil. Once you taste the real deal, it's very easy to identify the fake/watered down stuff by taste alone.
