i wonder if they can just relabel it for human consumption. 

glorybee and drapers in Nebraska routinely sell what I've been told is chinese or asian bee pollen for 
around $3.00 -$3.50 a pound in bulk 100# lots. the stuff is easy to identify - its got the 
consistency, appearance  and flavor of sawdust with little moisture content, yuck.
