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.

At least they label it so you can avoid it.

But they call it honey blend, which implies it's a blend of honey from different sources.
This would absolutely be deemed misleading advertising here.

But they call it honey blend

That is illegal as the must label it with what the Honey is blended with. So in this case you'd need to have it labeled "Blended Honey with Corn Syrup" or some variation of that.

I'm not a lawyer, but it looks like you are wrong:

4: If a food consists of honey and a sweetener, such as sugar or corn syrup, can I label the food as only “honey”?
No. A product consisting of honey and a sweetener cannot be labeled with the common or usual name “honey” because “[t]he common or usual name of a food . . . shall accurately identify or describe . . . the basic nature of the food or its characterizing properties or ingredients” (21 CFR 102.5(a)). Identifying a blend or a mixture of honey and another sweetener only as “honey” does not properly identify the basic nature of the food. You must sufficiently describe the name of the food on the label to distinguish it from simply “honey” (21 CFR 102.5(a)).

However they are only exempt from the declaration if it's pure honey, so the part about not having that is clearly against the guidelines. The header on page 1 says: "Contains Nonbinding Recommendations" So it's very fuzzy to a layman like me.
