Chapter 3

Is artificial honey taking over?

When you go to the store to buy honey, how do you know the product you’re buying is real and not adulterated with corn syrup and other artificial ingredients? The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has found that more than a fifth of imported honey failed purity tests. Fake honey contains sugars such as corn syrup, rice syrup and cane sugar syrup. Kerry Clark is President of the BC Honey Producers Association. He told our Niki Reitmayer what consumers should be on the lookout for.

BC has seen a recent spike in lethal backcountry falls. With seven deaths already in recreational activities in BC’s backcountry this summer, this surpasses the 3.5 average of people who die in related deaths during the summer according to the BC Coroners Service. With the long weekend already here, many will go hiking at the many trails, and mountains that we have in beautiful BC. So to make sure you’re safe, we have Director of North Shore Rescue Mike Danks.
