Honey ointment is generally made of honey and other traditional Chinese medicines, and some food additives and syrup are added, among which the ingredients are complex. Honey cream and honey not only have different nutritional components, but also have different prices. Because honey cream is not pure honey, many other ingredients are added, and the price in the market is often cheaper than honey, which leads some consumers to settle for the second best and choose honey cream.

The origin of honey cream
Some honey products are scratching the edge one after another. Some of them are called "honey cream" and some are called "honey milk". For example, a "honey cream for the elderly" produced by a company in Beijing, the production date is September 8, 2006, and the ingredients contain chrysanthemum and hay. In a supermarket in Sanxiaokou, Hefei, the reporter saw a "honey milk" produced by a food company in Shandong. Although it is no longer declared as "children's honey" on the outer packaging, it is marked as "zinc-rich infants" with a line of small print.
Honey cream came into being because the new national standard of honey was implemented in the production field on March 1 day, 2006, and in the circulation field on March1day, 2006. The new standard stipulates that foreign substances such as starch, sugar, sugar substitutes, preservatives and thickeners shall not be added or mixed into honey; If trace elements and other nutrients are added to honey, "honey" and "honey" can no longer be used as the subject of product name or name. Honey can be named as honey source plants such as "acacia honey" and "rose honey", but honey products can't be named in other ways, such as "honey for the elderly" and "honey for children". . .
