Results of sampling and testing of imported honey for signs of food fraud conducted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2022–2023 has revealed only 3 percent of samples to be violative.
This is a 7 percent decrease from 2021–2022 economically motivated adulteration surveillance data, which showed 10 percent of samples (14 of 144 samples). However, the two assignments were not designed for statistical comparison, says the agency.
