Oh how awful! I'm glad they figured out the cause and took measures to stop it.

Awww. I would have liked rainbow colored honey straight from the bee's. It would be a rad selling item for *cough*Amsterdam/Netherlands*cough*, short drive from N-France. Oh, the farmers and their jumpiness. Instead of immediately labeling it this or that, why not wait until you can test the honey and see if its actually safe to consume and what the extra thing is. If its something that isnt poisonous to humans or bees, why bother. You just got yourself a regional delicacy. "blue and green honey"

Awww, i thought it was cute and funny that the bees were eating mans produce and because of that their produce was inedible to man.

M&Ms are unhealthy for humans so honey made from them would be too. i just found them on a list of GMO products.

That is incredibly sad to me. I'm planning to start keeping bees in the spring. My biggest concern is that I live in the middle of corn and soybean farming country, and fear that the honey will be filled with GMO pollens. Sigh.

The green one looks tasty. Green is my favorite color though.
