It's because there was a book called "Folk Medicine: A Vermont Doctor's Guide to Good Health" that kicked off a health fad called the "Vermont health system" in Japan. It included drinking apple cider vinegar and honey. The curry then appropriated the name for its health connotations.
I hope this isn't rude, but how did you know that?
I was curious too, did a web search, and found this:

Awesome! Thank you!
I'm a huge fan of this style of curry, and went down a rabbit hole a few years ago learning lots of stuff about Japanese style curry.
Thank you! I'll have to give it a try.
TIL! Blows my mind as just yesterday I was buying some more S&B Gold at the store and was really curious about this brand. Cool insight.
You can get a similar vibe out of golden curry by peeling and pureeing a couple apples. I add them after the onions get soft and fry some moisture out of them before the water and tubers go in.
Just not my vibe, prefer spicy.
I should try it once but when the recipe says “add honey” I hear “add hot sauce”. Apples sound crazy.
