>...- correct label information, for example we must print to every jar '
not recommended for children under 1 year' because of possibility of
botulism. Even though there has not been any cases  of botulism coming
from honey in our country...<


Hallo all,

In my recent conversation with microbiologist from our university he
categorically said that for Clostridium botulinum spore to be activated is
necessary to have temperature of 70 Celsius.

So, in unheated honey nor in human organism (children also), spore cannot
be activated (even if present).


Aleksandar,
