The retail chain Action has recalled a batch of honey that failed quality standards due to the presence of foreign substances not naturally found in honey. The company has pledged to refund customers.

According to a statement on its website, the batch did not pass laboratory tests and violated legal regulations. Specifically, the product contained foreign amylase enzymes, including alpha-amylase from Aspergillus oryzae and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. However, Action emphasized that the product poses no health risk and consumers who have used it will not face problems. The presence of these enzymes indicates the honey is either counterfeit or adulterated.
