Strictly speaking, this is not adulteration. It may be unnatural and unethical to sell the honey as natural but it is honey. Bees do not care where they get the nectar. They process it into honey, in this case it is corn syrup, hcfs or cane sugar honey. It is still honey. Adulterated honey is honey which has had other sweeteners added to stretch the honey. a·dul·ter·ate ( P ) Pronunciation Key (-dlt-rt) tr.v. a·dul·ter·at·ed, a·dul·ter·at·ing, a·dul·ter·ates To make impure by adding extraneous, improper, or inferior ingredients. You could stretch it and say it is adulterated nectar but not adulterated honey. Then you are really in trouble, since, if you feed, bees tend to move stores around, so if one gram of that feed made it into a super, it would make the honey adulterated. But that is a sophism. soph·ism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (sfzm) n. 1. A plausible but fallacious argument. 2. Deceptive or fallacious argumentation.
