My wife returned from China last week, and brought home a jar of Chinese
honey as a treat.

We took it out at supper with beekeeper friends visiting to try it, and were
amazed.  If it is honey, it is not like any we have ever tasted.  It felt
_strange_ on the tongue, and the flavour was like an added perfume.

Honey?  HFCS?  Ultra-filtered honey?  Dunno.  None of us wanted more.  Yuck.

Moisture?  24.6%!
