16 hours ago, Kerry Beal said:Beet sugar is more likely to be found in Europe - North America is pretty exclusively cane sugar.
In the US (Mid-Atlantic region), beet sugar is quite common. When I was keeping bees, I was taught to avoid it (right or wrong) when I made syrup to help the bees bulk up for winter. Often (but not always) store brands were beet sugar. Sometimes Dominoe was the only available came sugar and it was typically a bit more expensive than the beet sugars.
(Nota bene: It has been more than five years since I last had to feed bees).
