Mine crystallized and I freaked out. I thought it meant its fake or old. Is crystallization normal?

Crystallization is common in many honeys and can depend on composition and storage. Not automatically a red flag.

But scammers also use confusion like this. 'Crystallized = fake' is a myth they exploit.

Also people online act like honey is supposed to look like syrup forever. Its not always like that.

If you want to treat it systematically: crystallization alone isnt proof of authenticity or fraud. Its one signal among many.
