ok, i'm going to ask a no-brainer. You can laugh at me, I really don't mind, but then please reply so I'll know. Would it be TERRIBLE if I used store bought honey. I says all natural, but it doesn't say raw unpastureized. Why is raw unpastuerized honey better (more nutritious)????

| I have heard that they add in corn syrup after they pastuerize the honey to make it flow better and not crystallize as easily (for clover honey).

When the honey is pasturized all the nutrients are cooked out. Raw honey is much healthier.

I'll play the Devils Advocate here.
If pastuerization destroys the nutrients, doesn't cooking also destroy them?
Food for thought.......

If I am adding it to something I am cooking, I use whatever honey I have. The raw honey makes little difference, because the cooking process will destroy a lot of the properties of the raw honey. I use pasteurized honey for cooking, and save the raw honey for medicinal purposes, and for use after cooking, like on biscuits and such. It's too valuable to waste in cooking.
Bon Apetit!
