> there were practically no differences between the raw, liquefied, and
pasteurized samples of each honey. These findings suggest that industrial
processes conducted under controlled conditions should not significantly
alter the intrinsic aroma of honey.

This is a perfect example of where some scientific studies entirely miss the
boat. Anyone who has a taste for honey, knows that there is a difference
between fresh unheated honey, moderately heated honey, and the
industrialized syrup fobbed off on people AS honey. No amount of scientific
analysis will ever diminish the value of fresh, unprocessed food versus the
homogenized pasteurized treacle some people have learned to tolerate. Get raw!
