Actually, I think Dave is correct when he states that the connection between honey and botulism is anecdotal. I think when the original investigation of the case in which honey was identified as the cause of botulism (I believe it was in California), honey was identified as a 'possible' source. However as Dave pointed out in his post, 'possible' sources are everywhere. DISCLAIMER: I am not a lawyer or a doctor (I don't even play one on TV) and I have not read case studies or the particular California case. However the issue is that botulism can be anywhere, including honey. The REAL ISSUE is that great care should be taken when preparing infants' food regardless if honey is an ingredient or not and that the fauna in infants' digestive track is more able to deal with possible botulism attack after their first year.
