  One of the  best tasting honeys I have ever encountered, was on a very
narrow road in the "woods" in  North East  Texas (The Big Thicket).  Around
a bend in the road, we came upon a small clearing, with a very small house
and a shed.  At roadside was a simple stand with about half a dozen quart
sized Mason Jars, filled with honey.  The hand lettered rough board sign
said simply:

  Raw Honey For Sale.

  We bought two of these, one of which I had no difficulty carrying home to
Canada.

  A truly memorable experience.

  PS The Maple Syrup producers in Vermont and other northern states, have a
similar problem.  I seem to remember that there are some very specific rules
about labelling, when any product  is no longer Pure Maple Syrup.  Some of
their labels actually include a brief statement of the regulations.
