As long as it's called something else, that's fine. This is France we're talking about here though, so food progeny is a thing they take quite seriously.

I second this.

There’s also the nutritional side. Food makes you happy but it also keeps you healthy and honey is a nutriments bomb. Not sure about the industrial ersatz.

They should definitely test the honey to see if it has the correct micronutrients. That way, the Chinese will have to fortify their fake honey the same way people in other countries fortify staples like milk or flour.

There is no 'lab-made' fake honey. The problem with commercial honey is that the farmers take all the honey from the bees, and replace it with sugar.
