Scandal by honey: 80% fake - consumers are outraged!
Österreich - A terrifying honey scandal shakes Austria! According to an alarming report of 5 minutes, a number of honey products in domestic supermarkets turned out to be deceptively cheap sugar syrup mixes that were never in contact with bees. After a careful examination, which was "concrete" organized by the ORF program, it was found that in 23 out of 31 honey samples tested, the content did not correspond to what was indicated on the labels. Obviously, all flexed products come from abroad, and many Austrian consumers were deceived without knowing it.
Large retail chains such as Spar and Rewe reacted to these fraudulent practices. According to Bee Austria, they removed several types of honey from the shelves and sent them to laboratories for security. SPAR emphasized that their in -house hones come exclusively from Austria and that the manufacturers are contractually obliged to provide only real honey. This happened and happens as part of a more intensive testing of the product quality, which is also required by Greenpeace to regain the trust of consumers.
Strengthening regionality by Spar
These two developments are not only a challenge, but also an opportunity for the Austrian food industry. Consumers are encouraged to buy fresh, authentic honey and actively pay attention to the origin information to ensure that they have real quality in the shopping cart. The reactions to this scandal could also lead to stricter controls and better protection against product falsification in the long term, while the new SPAR's own brand is a bright spot for regional producers.
