Instead of honey, a cheap starch substitute. Inspectors uncovered counterfeit forest honey
A Slovak honey product labeled as forest flower honey was found to contain an enzyme from mold, indicating it was not genuine honey. The inspection revealed the presence of alpha-amylase from Aspergillus oryzae, which is not naturally found in honey. This suggests the product was adulterated, misleading consumers who paid for real honey. Additionally, chicken thighs from Romania were found to contain Salmonella Infantis, posing a health risk if consumed. Consumers are advised not to eat the affected chicken if it has been frozen.
