Those small jars of imported honey labelled with their floral sources are intriguing to shoppers. In the past, Canadian honey has been sold as plain honey - not as lavender honey, pine honey, orange blossom honey or wildflower honey. This year, amendments have been made to regulations governing Canada's honey industry. One change allows producers to label containers with the floral source. Canadian liquid or creamed honey is graded according to quality. Under the new system, the current three standard grades will remain practically the same. However Canada No. 1 grade honey, the quality most commonly available to consumers, must now be thicker than before. As in the past, graded honey is free of foreign material and meets standards of moisture, uniformity of colour, clearness and flavour. Creamed honey must also have a fine texture with complete and uniform granulation. To help you esta-blish the quality of foreign produced honey, imports must now be labelled according to Canadian grading standards. Since liquid honey changes with time into various forms of granulated honey, provisions have been made to expand grade standards to cover viscous and partly granulated honey. Now the term "liquid honey" applies only to honey which will remain liquid. "Creamed honey" or a similar expression, applies to honey packed in the granulated form. <1mn 27s>
