April 22, 2021 Saving the Bees From Within the Honey Supply Chain
Honey crystallization is a major cause of consumer discontent with honey products they find on the shelf in their grocery store. In reality, crystallized honey is not at all harmful and just as good as liquid honey. It is simply a reaction due to the glucose and fructose ratios in a jar of honey. Intertek works within the honey supply chain to assure that the product reaching consumers is the best it can be. In this podcast Sandra Meixner, Klaus Beckmann and Britta Bellersen discuss what Intertek is doing to help #SaveTheBees.
