The MMY Vedic Honey that I received says in small print on the side of the jar and the boxes "Product of Brazil." Do we have a Vedic Honey facility down there? It tastes okay - with a slight lemony aftertaste. It is a tad granular -not as smooth as commercial honey. I don't think it enlightened me, at least not yet! But who knows? Maybe that blast of light t hat raced up my spine and out my head a few minutes ago was due to the honey! The $10 jar is almost empty since it contains enough for about 4 skimpy spoonfuls. The really interesting part of all this is that the $40 size jar (which I also ordered if you can imagine that) has a box with a front that swings open. When you swing open the front flap a song plays from a plastic insert. The song has women singing about Maharishi Vedic Honey in a reptitive jingle that lasts about 60 seconds. The mailing package I received this in had been ripped open and one of the boxes disabled and torn apart - probably by a Fex Ex delivery guy who got so irritated by the song that had been triggered by jostling in the mail.
Vaj, I would not eat anything from India that had not been cooked or else certified clean and heavy metal and parasite free. Unlesss I knew the manufacturer to be really reliable. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Apr 7, 2005, at 6:39 PM, Bob Brigante wrote: > > > This Himalaya honey does not claim to be raw, which is important by > > Ayurveda standards, as heated honey is said to contain toxins.
