And he is definitely globally wrong anyway.

Our local supermarket sells honey from a local beekeeper that we've also bought honey from directly before. Only that one local supermarket has their honey and it's closer to us than driving to the beekeeper. And yes it has a nice looking but plain label on the jar.

He is probably mostly right about large quantity, imported honey tho.

I think as a guide for buying honey his advice is valuable, although a bit dramatic, and it won’t apply to every country or region.

As someone who is a beekeeper and owns a farm, you can be much more certain what you’re getting is honey where I am from when it’s being purchased from the back of a van from some random person with some glass jars, than you can at any supermarket. Hi it’s me I am the random person with the glass jars :)
