We just returned home to California from Ireland and Wales. Early on we were enjoying a buffet breakfast at a hotel in Ireland where there was this verrrry liquidy substance in a pitcher. I wondered if it were some kind of syrup. Honey never reaches that consistency unless it's been heated in a pot on the stove. Other diners insisted it was honey. Finally I poured out a drop on my finger and sure enough, it was honey flavored. If that wasn't adulterated or hyper-filtered honey, I don't know what it was. We encountered this pseudo honey in other Irish places as well.
Sad that people don't know what real honey looks like.
