Think You’re Buying Real Honey

honey may:
Become cloudy

Develop fine crystals

Turn thick and spreadable

But here’s the catch

Not all real honey crystallizes at the same rate.

Some varieties crystallize within weeks.

Others remain liquid for months or even years.

Likewise, some processed or adulterated honey can also crystallize.

Crystallization alone cannot prove authenticity, but it is usually a normal sign of natural honey.
