In New England there must be different types of honey than there are in India. The quality and traits of the honey takes on by the plants and blossoms the bees visited in order to produce the batch, and in New England (USA) the plants are very different from India.

We can get wild honey that is hypo-allergenic and helps with local allergies very much... Meaning, if the bees in your home area visit your local trees/flowers that you are allergic to, then you can gain a resistance to allergies developed from drinking/consuming the honey made from that pollen. It can build a sort of "pollen immune system" to that plant.

So everyone says you should try to buy local honey is the best, instead of just imported honey.

Also some people will sell fruited honey, meaning honey with fruits right in it (blueberry honey, chokecherry honey, raspberry honey, blackberry honey, etc.) with the exotic honeys from Maine just to try and get you to buy non-local honey LOL. It's because really, local honey is the best you can do for your health! The store is bribing you to buy the non-local brand hehe.

I'm going to try to look up a recipe with honey in it for here.
