Some posts are ignored. One test that is carried out in the UK is on
honey off the retail shelf. You will never know your own honey was
tested until you get that "knock on the door". One interesting example
(which I have quoted before) was the discovery of sucrose at too high a
%. It was further analysed and found not to be from cane or beet sugar.
It was presumed to have come from borage, so the producer was not
prosecuted. In addition whenever the Bee Inspector came to look at hives
last year (s)he took away sample jars of honey for testing. My honey
proved negative to the Chinese problem chemicals - of course.
