If you stir in very fine granules the honey will make very small
crystals and become "creamed honey" ! It is still raw honey with every
thing in it but it now has an extended shelf life.

Pollen in the honey is demanded by many consumers. They don't want the
fine filtering of supermarket honey, so as to save the pollen. "Raw" honey
has a shorter shelf life, as it will crystallize quicker.
Say Dave
Does the statement above mean that crystallized raw honey is bad
and should be taken off the shelf.
I hope not as a pervayor of 100 % RAW Hawaii Honey I sell a
lot of crystallized honey to customers who recognize crystallized
honey as the only sure way to know that the honey is raw and
unprocessed and better for
them from a health stand point.
