Has this honey been pasteurized?

I just checked my bottle and it doesn't say that it's pasteurized anywhere on the label.

There is nothing on the packaging that suggests these Pistachios are pasteurized. The word "pasteurized" does not appear anywhere on the label. They are roasted, shelled and sea salted though.

It says on the jar, "unpasteurized, unprocessed, raw state." It is very delicious and I think the best honey I've ever had.

Crystallization is normal for honey and I have seen it before. I have ordered this product in the past and it was never crystalized. The last jar that I ordered however was crystalized and had an unpleasant odor too. I sent it back.Suzanne

About these particular nuts, I cannot comment. But for your general information and in answer to the comment by Leann McCamey: I am sorry to have to inform you that the FDA specifically allows steam-heat pasteurized almonds to be labeled "RAW" Yes, even though they are "cooked" by being pasteurized, the FDA allows (and perhaps encourages) the industry to continue to label them raw. The other method of "pasteurization" is fumigation by toxic gas (my memory is not screening up the chemical right now, just google for it) and those also are "raw", I am not sure how "organic" they are according to the USDA's definition of "organic". Of course none of this fits MY definition of safe, wholesome, raw or organic.

It's raw honey and that's the way it's supposed to look. The honey you see that is golden colored has either been heated and/or water added.

Only raw unstrained honey is really kosher. No honey that is without the wax should ever be considered Kosher.

Raw unheated honey will last indefinitely; I am trying to find out if this honey is in plastic or glass-I certainly hope it comes in glass! Julene W.

It comes as a very fine powder, not freeze dried, and I don't think it is pasteurized

I called the factory in Brooklyn. The juice is "flash pasteurized." That is why it is safe at room temperature until it is opened. I was told the pasteurization process is fast enough to kill bacteria without damaging the ingredients.

Sorry, I cannot answer that question, email Stakich directly. All I can say is that it is the best raw honey you will ever find.

Hi Samantha. So far, every one of their honey products I have purchased, has been raw. Most of the labels say raw, unpasteurized, unfiltered. I hope this helps you.

It is raw....(not stated on the container) but the research I have done on this honey indicates it is raw honey....you will recognize the enormous good the honey does for your body. Highly recommend it.

I don't think so. I read the label and it is royal Jelly and other ingredients are "Quality Raw Honey".

But of course! Raw honey has a multitude of beneficial enzymes & antioxidants in it. Unprocessed honey tends to border on the cryustalised phase. Unfortunately raw honey is not recommended for infants' pacifiers as it contains botulin cultures. The fly in the ointment lies in processing even over a low heat double boiler the beneficial flora are destroyed. For the record; for a grown up there is no plausible reason to process honey. It is perfect just as nature made it! As to botulins...raw garlic so often used in cooking has a higher level w/v than honey. M. L.

On their website they say it is from Star Thistle nectar. Here is the website: http://sleepingbearfarms.com/about-raw-honey/

Raw honey has an indefinite shelf life. I've seen that fact listed in many sources, but here's one for your assurance: http://www.honey.com/faq/Here's another source positing the same answer, and you may research the shelf life of any food product here: http://www.stilltasty.com/fooditems/index/17413
