White Honey???

I saw a discussion on NEOBA's Yahoo Group about white honey. When I was looking at the hives on Sunday the honey looked awfully white. I was kinda concerned because I have been feeding the bee's lots of sugar water. Then I started thinking the main source of clover right now is white so maybe the clover honey is white too. After looking at the The USDA Honey Report for May, I noticed white honey seems to get as good a price or better than darker honey. Sugar water or not I am not going to worry about the color of the honey. I was told be several beekeepers to feed for six weeks and I have not added supers. So let the honey be as it may.
