Why is the surface of the bought honey covered with wax after soaking in water? Is this fake honey?
1, true honey is transparent or translucent. Real honey contains protein, biological enzymes, minerals, pollen and other ingredients, so it looks not very clear, and it is white, light yellow or amber, and light color is preferred. Fake honey is bright in color, usually light yellow or dark yellow, because it is boiled with white sugar or impersonated with syrup.

2. Real honey is a viscous liquid, which arouses visible flexible filaments and keeps flowing. False honey has suspended matter or precipitation, and its viscosity is small. When it is stirred, it falls drop by drop and then is cut off. After exposure, real honey becomes thinner, while fake honey remains unchanged or thickens. If honey is extremely thin and easy to flow, it may be mixed with water.

3. Real honey smells pure and natural, with faint floral fragrance, while fake honey smells pungent or fruity.

4. True honey is sweet and delicious, with sticky taste, slightly sour taste and long aftertaste. When you taste the crystal block, your teeth will be brittle and it will melt. If you taste the fake honey carefully, it has a bitter taste or a strange smell of chemicals, but it has no aromatic fragrance. The crystal block chews like sugar, and its voice is crisp and loud.
