The Honey Integrity Act aims to protect the integrity of honey marketed in the United States.
The Honey Integrity Act mandates the establishment of a standard of identity for honey and a program to detect economically motivated adulteration in honey. It requires commercial honey packers to conduct testing, report findings, and refuse receipt of adulterated honey. The Secretary of Health and Human Services must investigate, test, and destroy adulterated honey, and share data with enforcement agencies and stakeholders. The Act also mandates a report to Congress on enforcement actions regarding adulterated and misbranded honey.
