The bottle said: NATURAL<UNPASTURIZED< GRADE NO.1 > >GOLDEN> a It was about two years ago so they may have changed it but you write it is Unpasteurized and that you can't see through it. My problem may have stemed from being unpasteurized. Pasteurized honey is usually filtered. I use Bee now and if you put it on your finger (which I just did) you can see that it is clear and golden coloured- not cloudy. So, if the No Name honey is pure and not cloudy (pollen removed) it is okay. Sheila, SCD 48 mos, 20 yrs UC mom of , SCD 33 mos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Hi Sheila, After the company called I opened the jug to look at it (jug was opaque). It was darker in colour and had a much stronger taste, but not cloudy, so I decided to give it a go. I used it in the custard, and the next day Jake had " D " . or the " cha-cha " s, as we call them. I can only assume the honey was the cause as it was the only new thing we have introduced in a week. So much for saving a buck. Thanks also for the yogurt help. I really appreciate all the help from this web site. thanks, again Karla, mom to Jake 3 1/2, ASD.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 Hi Karla, I checked out the honey today and they have changed it completely, new bottles, labels etc. The Bee is still cheaper per Kg.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Just be careful with it - I'm pretty sure it has maltitol in it, which is the sugar alcohol that gives most people the most digestive trouble. You don't want to be up all night on the pot with an entire roll of toilet paper and your laptop (thank God for wireless, right?) or a book or your knitting.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 From http://www.khwanabee.com/ ... ********************************************************************** LWanabee Imitation Sugar-free Honey " A sweet honey taste with ½ the calories of sugar. " Our " Imitation Honey " is made with nature's flavorings and ingredients. One important ingredient in our honey substitute is maltitol. Maltose syrup (a corn product), is reduced to produce maltitol. Maltitol and maltitol syrup is used for sweetening candies, chewing gum, baked goods, candy coating and ice cream, and other dietetic products. It gives a good creamy, rich texture. Wanabee Imitation Honey provides fewer calories than regular sugar (FDA allows 2.1 calories per gram sugar alcohol versus 4 per gram for sugar). That is because Maltitol converts to glucose more slowly and requires little insulin to be metabolized. This enables it to be used in the diets of people who must control their blood sugar, people on the Atkins or other low carb diets. Order Low-carb Imiation Honey It has been shown that Maltitol carbohydrates can be excluded from total carbohydrates to give net effective carbohydrates, therefore can be used as part of a low carb diet. The American Diabetes Association has a different way to calculate the carbs, as they recommend dividing the sugar alcohols in ½ for net carbs. Serving Size: 1 Tbsp Total Carbs: 17 grams (-) Maltitol (Sugar Alcohol): -17 grams ----- NET EFFECTIVE CARBS: 0 grams Serving Suggestions: Wanabee Sugar-free Imitation Honey is scrumptious used in glazes, barbeque sauce, over ice cream, in cereal, muffins, over pancakes and waffles, and is great for sweetening smoothies, adding to coffee and teas, or you may enjoy it as an old fashioned comfort food with peanut butter on bread. Amount Per Serving % Daily Value* Calories 48 Total Fat 0g 0% Sodium 0mg 0% Total Carbohydrate 17g Sugars 0g 6% Sugar alcohols 17g Protein 0g * Percent daily values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet If eaten in uncontrolled amounts, this product can raise blood sugar in Type 1 diabetics. There is also a small possibility of bloating and diarrhea. ********************************************************************** FWIW, this would come off the 75 calories a day sweets limit -- ESPECIALLY because it has the malitol in it!
