You can not trust Australian Organic anymore. They are allowing packers to import honey and use the certification in a way that misleads consumers.
This is another Australian Certified organic (ACO) honey that appears Australian but consists of imported honey. So many people buy this honey thinking it is 100 percent Australian. This imported honey is inferior and hurts all Australian beekeepers. ACO do not test this honey and if they ever do they will not give consumers the results. This Certified honey sold at ALDI may not be organic at all. I was told by phone by their representative it may contain Monsanto's Roundup glyphosate. Hundreds of consumers have complained about the quality of imported honey saying it is syrupy .
ACO are certifying a biosecruity risk. Imported honey introduces strains of diseases that Australia does not yet have yet.
ACO where the F does this honey come from?
ACO are you sure you are not certifying honey as organic when it may contain glyphosate and neonicotinoids?
ACO is this imported honey tested for American Foul Brood (AFB) that is decimating apiaries in Australia?
ACO is there compensation for consumers if they have consumed products you certify and we find out they are not organic?
ACO many Australians think your certification means the contents are Australian. Does that mean you will alter the way your logo can be used so consumers are not mislead?
Why don't you release the results of testing you have done on supermarket honeys in Australia?
Australian Certified Organic you are fast losing any credibility Australians are sick of being deceived by corporations. Your certification is being used as a tool to deceive us.
