Save the Endangered Honey Bear!

Posted by Emily on Fri, May 21, 2010 - 9:56 AM

We need your help to save the endangered Honey Bear. Why is he endangered? Because of a troubling trend taking place: honey-flavored syrups, or honey that’s diluted with other ingredients, are becoming more and more common on store shelves. They masquerade as honey all the while containing as little as 10 percent actual honey.

That’s why today we’re kicking off a national awareness campaign to alert people to always check the label to make sure what they’re buying is 100% pure honey. We’d be grateful to have your support in a number of ways, primarily by spreading the word to your friends and family to always check the label and to also visit our new site, SaveTheHoneyBear.com.

Become a fan of our Facebook page or follow us on Twitter to learn more information as the campaign unfolds. Again, we’d love to have your support in saving the Honey Bear!

It is hard to find real honey on the grocery store Shelf. Read the label for content. —Save the Honey Bee—Less Bee Keepers are known, Bees are needed to pollinate the fruit trees., and some vegetable plants.

OH goodness. The Honey Bear needs to stay 100 percent honey…

My very first honey bear came from the WeekiWachi gift shop 35 some years ago.
Oh how I cherished that sweet golden liquid and the bear was my prize….
