A LOT of honey in grocery stores are actually syrup but due to capitalism, there really is no real way to tell for sure.
If you are allergic, but won’t die, from having honey, you might be able to make a guide for those of us that actually want real honey but have trouble trusting asshole companies.
The allergens in honey are from where the honey was made. If you haven’t already you might try locally sourced honey as it will have the allergens that are already in the air where you live.

Some of us have allergies to specific pollinators. I can’t have some honey without a scratchy throat.
Love bees! Can’t have what they make :((

I mean… capitalism is the source of many problems, but probably not why we can’t tell the difference between honey and counterfeit syrup sold as such
Chemistry is to blame here
