Found this on BeeSource.

................
While visiting a friend over Memorial Day weekend in Petoskey, MI, I found myself in a Walgreens. I stumbled across a display selling Barry Bee Honey. (http://www.barrybeehoney.com/)

Where do you suppose it was located in the store? Among what other products? Check it out:

unfortunately that really does not surprise me what a shame.
they at least should have put it in the entertainment section next to the movie as a marketing tool or something.

I clicked on the beesource link and got a computer worm warning. I cancelled the link pronto.

With Walgreens I'm not surprised...

Hey, it could be worse!

Cottom balls for Black History month--that's as good as Engrish.
