Doesn't that open a market for local "beekeepers" to buy honey from China and package it up with inkjet printed labels and hand screwed lids that say "local from <insert town>"? Placebo and power of suggestion is strong. I often wonder myself if produce I am buying at farmers markets a really authentic or just resold produce from grown on a large agro-business farm someplace across the country.

Also, I am a ware of a scheme that is importing Chinese garlic into Western Europe through Eastern Europe. You see Chinese garlic much like honey is banned there. Yet unbeknownst to them West Europeans (Germans, French) have been chowing down on Chinese garlic for a while now. The way it works it like this. A large shipment is brought into a city next to the EU border. Then small paid cargo van drivers make lots of trips across the border seemingly as local farmers going about their business. Then it is either sold at farmers market or "local" farmers buy it from them and sell it as "local" produce. Easy peasy.
