What it is

Nebraska honey is a type of honey produced by honeybees in the state of Nebraska. It is made when bees collect nectar from local flora, such as clover and alfalfa, and process it within the hive. The resulting honey is a natural sweetener.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use Nebraska honey primarily as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer. Its distinct taste can add complexity to baked goods and cereals. It is often found in granola, cookies, and other breakfast items.

Health notes

Honey is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is primarily composed of sugars, providing calories and carbohydrates. JECFA has evaluated honey and established guidelines for its quality. While generally considered safe, excessive consumption of any added sugar can contribute to health issues. Honey should not be given to infants under one year of age due to the risk of botulism.

Allergen info

Honey is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
