Title: USA Honey Label Laws- 2 lazy 2 google today
Post by: The Bees Ankles on July 24, 2011, 02:48:53 PM
I wonder if anyone knows if it is legal to sell honey with no "USDA Grade" and no "country of origin" information on a "store brand" of honey sold at a multi-state chain of USA groceries?
Thanks
