Journal of Food Distribution Research, 2003, vol. 34, issue 2, 8

Abstract: The paper highlights the issue of economic adulteration of high-value food products and provides a context for discussion and analysis based on experiences with the U.S. honey industry. Perspectives on economic adulteration are identified, trends relevant to the issue of economic adulteration are discussed, and industry opinions on economic adulteration of honey are summarized. The paper is based on research funded by the National Honey Board to provide a platform for industry dialogue on the need for a quality-assurance program.
