I live near by this area. I also buy honey from Kelley’s regularly, but have never seen this abomination. The honey they sell around here is 100% grade a raw unfiltered. It also has nutrition information on the bottle.
Wait, why can’t you feed it to Children under one?
Some type of bacteria they’re not ready to handle yet?
Correct. Infant botulism can result from bacteria in raw honey that is otherwise harmless to anyone with a developed immune system.
At first I was like “yeah doesn’t everyone know that?” And then I realized that I didn’t know that until I had kids.
I have a kid and this is the first I’m hearing about it.
Our pedi was over the top with reminding us. With both kids, actually.
He probably has some history that led him to stress that so much to patients.
I don’t have kids and I know it. When I was a kid, my parents would make us banana smoothies as a treat. It’s just banana, milk, ice, and honey. They mentioned a few times that they were excited for us to turn a year old so we could have them because of the honey.
I waited til they were there before I have them honey, hah
Yeah, I didn’t know that until very recently, and that was because of an anime I was watching.
Basically, yeah.
There are bacterial spores that are no danger to nearly all adults but will absolutely end your baby.
But you CAN put it on little bumps and scrapes.
But don’t put it on the little bumps and scrapes of children under one.
Not sure why you were down voted because it’s true. Honey has very low water activity and essentially remains in good condition over tens of thousands of years. It’s been used to treat wounds throughout history by helping create an environment inhospitable to microbes.
Anthrax, no I’m not joking.
I thought botulism was the main threat.
It is botulism. https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/botulism
Apart from OP’s picture missing the 's on Kelley’s, it seems genuine due to the matching inconsistent use of capitalisation.
Only other image I could find was from Walmart. Wonder if the “Texas blend” is a Walmart specific product.
Walmart has been known to make unreasonable demands to farmers that might result in exactly this type of fuckery
Not just farmers. All their suppliers.
Why does it say “Texas” on it 6 times?
Texas is a cult
What’s obnoxious is that they keep calling their bullshit “Southern tradition!” when it’s never made it out of their state.
Only state to fight a war for slavery twice btw
