Two honeys. Two totally different public stories. Why did Manuka become premium wellness and this become danger drug honey?

Standards and certification narratives helped Manuka. Clear verification beats mystery.

Also Manuka sellers didn’t lean into contraband vibes. That matters.

Media incentives too: 'danger honey' is a better headline than 'premium honey.'
