Once someone explains the process, the result will be a slam dunk.

I hope you are right!

 Instead of trying to slip ultra filtered honey by the FDA I rather suspect
a move will be made to get the blessing of the FDA for ultra filtration.

The ultra filtration question comes at a excellent time with honey being on
a three year watch program by the FDA.

With a mass spec machine honey which has been treated with DI filters still
contains traceable amounts of DI earth but yet the process has the blessing
of the FDA.

Water is water and the fact that Jim suggests that the remaining 18.5 %
water after ultra filtration may not be the original water will not carry
much weight when looked at carefully in my opinion.

I most hardily agree with Jim that the reasons for using ultra filtration
are to hide problems or improve poor quality  honey.
