I received a shipment of Apicure yesterday from BetterBee.  When I first
opened it I was gased by a large amount of fumes that came out of the box.
As I took a few steps back and walked out the garage to catch my breath I
wondered how much time I had taken off my life with enhaling those fumes.
I returned later to check out the package and found what I thought was
leakage as there appeared to be a liquid all over the packing and packages
of apicure.  I called BetterBee to let them know that there appeared to be
a problem with the shipment.  They assured me this was normal and the
moisture I saw was water.  Well, that New York water had a different smell
to it than any water I had ever smelt.  I examined every pack as quickly as
I could as the smell was too strong to stand.  I placed the packages in a
plastic tupperware container for now until I can think of another plan on
what to do with those packets.  I guess in closing what I am trying to say
is if you receive a shipment don't open it like a christmas package like I
did you might be in for a surprise.
