• Alfalfa might be good? Usually pale

• Analysis and quantitation of the carbohydrates in honey using high-performance liquid chromatography

  • *At slow crystallization rate many crystals grow from the base of each crystals, forming larger star-shaped masses, which give honey a gritty texture. This type of crystal is observed in jars of liquid honey in supermarket shelves.
  • Natural crystallization in raw honey is usually fine grained, while heated honey crystallizes slowly and is coarse grained. Additionally, Lupano (1997) also found that honey stored at 20°C produced coarse grain, while that stored at -20°C produced fine-crystals, and a mid temperature range (4-10°C) produced mixed size crystals.

  • The FUCK. IT WAS DARK!!! At least it being creamed gives it a consistent texture no matter what.
• Stakich: $15/kg
  • An amazon review makes an interesting point that it may not atually be raw. At its best, it has that grainy, highly viscous (as opposed to totally solid) texture.
  • When I started using it in my 30s in place of soap & acne washes & acne creams, my adult Acne cleared up quickly & entirely. Using this product in the same way I have various other raw honeys over the years, my acne is back for the first time in 15years. Which again, strongly suggests that this has either been heated or had other sugars added to it.
