FDA finds Monsanto’s weed killer in US honey samples

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) — under public pressure to start testing samples of U.S. food for the presence of a pesticide that has been linked to cancer — has some early findings that are not so sweet.

In examining honey samples from various locations in the United States, the FDA has found fresh evidence that residues of the weed killer called glyphosate can be pervasive — found even in a food that is not produced with the use of glyphosate.

All of the samples the FDA tested in a recent examination contained glyphosate residues, and some of the honey showed residue levels double the legally allowed limit in the European Union, according to documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. There is no legal tolerance level for glyphosate in honey in the United States, largely, making any amount of detectable glyphosate in honey illegal.
