I was permanently banned from the Reddit sub without recourse for posting this despite not breaking any rules. I'm slowly making the migration over thanks to such encouragement.

Would corn syrup stop it from becoming solid? I love honey but budget mind thinks, "buy bulk" and 1 yr later I have like half a quart left to practice my own tar experiment.

I would guess the ban came from an overzealous application of the "no personal info" doxxing rule, because that pic has an address on it which is technically a company address, but there ya go, that's my guess. I was banned once for something similar.

I was permanently banned from streaming (had thousands of followers at the time) for animal abuse after asking another streamer if they milk their goats, then I was permanently site banned for harassment after arguing with them about it. Don't give me an excuse to get started.

I was told a long time ago that if it says "Made with..", you should always mentally add "very little of..."

Report them to… I think it’s the FDA that oversees food labels?

They’re violating federal regulations.

As if that is something someone in Texas cares about these days.

At least the ingredients are being honest. It's a massive problem around the world. They even have insanely sophisticated testing machines that are even fooled sometimes.

I'm seeing the nutritional value thing, but I don't see what the other comments are talking about...

It's not honey, it's high fructose corn syrup

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Technically since honey is listed first it should be at least mostly honey, as in 51% or more. But it is probably mostly corn syrup and the phrasing is intended to discourage lawsuits that would lead to anyone checking the ratio.

Which is really bad since only needing to be 51% of the thing is a pretty low bar in the first place.

Isn't it honey AND high fructose corn syrup, and with honey being above the syrup it's mostly honey?
