Is it normal for honey to foam?

What you're looking at is “honey foam,” the result of tiny air bubbles in the honey escaping to the top. After jarring our honey, air bubbles work their way up to the top of the container, creating the foam. There is nothing wrong with the honey or the foam and it is perfectly edible.

How can you tell real honey from fake?
