>>>> If one feeds HFCS to bees during a honey flow and the bees are taking and storing the HFCS, is the honey adulterated?
YES to my way of thinking. I feed sugar syrup and to make sure that it isn't included with my honey production I color it with red, blue, or green food coloring. When pulling honey, if I see a frame with a cell of color (food coloring) in it, it is excluded from the extraction process.
Integrity of my product is very important to me. I get kidded by my buddies who have helped me with extraction. I tell 'em, if you lick your fingers, ya gotta go wash your hands before you continue helping.
