Hate to break it to you, but your truffle oil wasn't made from truffles. Your vanilla extract? Well, that's probably just a lab-made derivative of crude oil. And your shaker of Parmesan cheese? It probably has wood pulp inside.

You might feel the companies behind these food products are using deceptive packaging — but it's legal. However, there's a whole other level of trickery that's completely illegal: food fraud. That's when criminals bottle up corn syrup and call it 100% honey, or when they pass off cheap mozzarella as pure Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Globally, the fraudulent food industry could be worth $40 billion. It hurts legitimate producers, funds criminal activities, and can even harm consumers. We head around the world to uncover how producers get away with food deception and how we can spot the real stuff.

Anyone buying a Parmigiano shaker thinking it's real Parmigiano cheese has much bigger problems than believing their cheese is really authentic Parmigiano cheese.

My Grandfather is a hobbyist beekeeper. He generally has around 18 to 20 active beehives and specializes in raspberry honey, as there are large raspberry fields nearby. The honey his bees produce is unlike any other I have ever tried. It's almost as if you took the smell of a blooming raspberry garden and closed it in a jar. His bees produce around 300-350kg of that honey every year and it goes for around ~20$/kg, so it's really quite expensive. But it sells out so quickly, people make reservations 2 years in advance. It's completely worth it though - the taste is amazing and it will never spoil unless you contaminate the jar. Every summer I spend a weekend or two helping him maintain the apiary and it's such a relaxing experience. Over the last 10 years I got stung maybe a dozen times and I don't even bother with protective clothing. Bees really are precious critters and need to be protected.

the point about people not buying cheap crap would help, the problem with this is so many people have to buy cheap just to survive, they can't afford to choose.

Yes blame the consumer, it's all their fault, because they buy the stuff that's allowed to be sold to them. Let's not talk about the "alleged" corruption that allows the fake and poisoned food to be on store shelfs.

As a person with severe allergies, the fact that the label can lie is probably the scariest part of this for me.

My professor quoted a line from Nepal, it says if you have no food on your table you have one problem but if you have food on the table you have thousands. This thing really hit me hard.

I started making my own chocolate fudge sauce because all the store brands are now using high fructose corn syrup. The Aldi brand was the last one to cave. When I started buying it a few years ago, it listed just sugar, but now it has HFCS in the ingredients. I look at all labels now to avoid that ingredient in my diet. I think it’s one of major causes of the mass obesity in our country.

I remember years ago I started only buying peanut butter that contained peanuts. Family laughed at me. I didn't think expecting my peanut butter to be made from peanuts was unreasonable.

As a beekeeper I understand what they’re talking about when they say you have to have patience. I don’t really get much honey but when I do, it’s wonderful when I sell it to my customers and they tell me that it is the best honey that they’ve ever tasted. I didn’t even know that China was the largest producer of Honey in the world

Sounds to me like the biggest issue with 100% of all our imported products is the shipping and security. We just learned here in canada our ports have 5 people checking 550k containers a day so theres no way to be sure, not even checking labels. Noone can trust Anyone or anything nowadays.

A core problem is allowing terms such as "artificial flavor" and "natural flavor" as "ingredients" (and all their variations). A flavor, whether artificial or real, is NOT an ingredient - it is a property of an ingredient. Edit: I originally used the terms "artificial flavoring" and "natural flavoring", but a couple of comments pointed out that "flavoring" is not "flavor". So, I changed "flavoring" to "flavor" to be more grammatically consistent with the rest of the comment. However, "flavoring" is also used in ingredients lists, and is just as wrong.

My mom was received a rare gift of authentic extra concentrated Dominican vanilla. It had no fillers and processed and produced in a way that it's natural sugars prevented it from going bad if fridged, the thing was so highly concentrated if you pour more than one or two drops into the milkshake blender it was too much flavor! I grew up with it, It lasted 10 years in my fridge, I'll probably never actually taste real vanilla ever again.

Biggest problem is that misleading labels are legal.

I honestly don't mind imitation products as long as they taste good and won't hurt me, but I DO mind is being lied to and potentially poisoned by greedy companies.

I was once given a jar of homemade honey by a customer of mine. He had a huge garden, full of many beautiful varieties of flower, and the honey the bees made from them had a wonderful, floral aroma. There really is no substitute for the real thing.

My mom used to warn us about fake and harmful products in food. She learned this many years ago in college. Imagine a college teaching the dangers of fake vs real anything today.

Food fraud is a sneaky and widespread issue that affects both consumers and legitimate producers. While some deceptive practices may skirt legal boundaries, others, like food fraud, are outright illegal and pose serious risks. It's astonishing to think that what we assume to be premium ingredients could be cheap substitutes, harming both the integrity of the food industry and the health of consumers. The scale of this problem is staggering, with the global food fraud industry estimated at a whopping $40 billion. Not only does it undermine the hard work of honest producers, but it also fuels criminal activities and jeopardizes consumer trust. However, shedding light on these deceitful practices is crucial. By understanding how food deception operates and learning to identify genuine products, we can empower ourselves to make informed choices and support ethical producers.
