I was permanently banned from the Reddit sub without recourse for posting this despite not breaking any rules. I'm slowly making the migration over thanks to such encouragement.

And, in the US you'd expect it to be something blended with honey. Different expectations, neither one of those expectations is unreasonable.
Right... and it's not called honey, it's called "Texas Honey Blend". If it were honey it would be called "Honey".
You don't have to "decipher" that, you just have to look at the fact it's a blend, not honey. The "made with real honey" is just additional confirmation that yes, it's not pure honey.
Because different food rules? Why percentages?
Gourmet stuff doesn't come in bear-shaped plastic bottles.
It would be, if it were the case. But, that's definitely not the case here. It's just different from the rules you're used to. The core of your comment seems to be "this is different than what I'm used to, and I'm shocked!"
You know what else is odd? That you're staunchly defending this label with barely any information on it. Pretty much every point you've made is "but why does it need information"...
Barely any information on it? My guy, are you blind?
Oh sorry, you're right, there's an address for more info. I shall scribe my correspondence post haste in order to discover the nature of the product on the shelf.
So, despite the ingredients being listed, you're still confused? Do you have a brain injury?
No, I grew up eating foods that I could be certain weren't made up of 99% corn syrup.
How do you know? Apparently you're not capable of reading the label!
