Here's a photo I took in Manhattan of the label
one one pail on two pallets of sixties that had 
been delivered to a large bakery (Eli's), and 
were sitting on the sidewalk waiting for the 
bakery's forklift.

All containers in the shipment were labeled
with the same surprising admission:

It was from SueBee, who's motto is "America's Honey"
but look at the label:

"Contains Honey From USA, Brazil & India"

I know that SueBee started buying honey from
Argentinean beekeepers a while ago, but when 
did they start buying from Brazil and India?
