No Bees

It never spoils or rots. Honey found in the Pyramids was still edible. (Not sure I'd want to, though) And eating local honey will often de-activate allergy responses since you're getting minute amounts of local pollens in the honey.

I would eat that old honey in a second.

Bald faced hornets. Love to eat yellow jackets. B. F. Hornets are harmless IF left alone. Mad, they could some damage.

Skunks. Skunks will clean out yellow jackets and bees too!

That looks yummy! I buy a dark local honey that is delicious. Love that honey! Did you know that it heals burns? If you burn yourself, put honey on the burn and it will heal right up.

I seem to allergic to many antibacterial ointments, but can and DO use raw honey. Amazing stuff.

Honey is also anti viral and will kill pneumonia virus. I keep honey and apple cider vinegar mixed up half/half in a jar. I just keep it in the cabinet, no refrigeration. First sign of a sore throat, I put some in a small glass and top with water. I sip on it until it's gone and keep drinking it until the sore throat or cold is gone. It is also the cure for food poisoning and diarrhea. If you are "running at both ends" so to speak, sip on ACV and honey. Even if you puke it back up, keep sipping on it until you have consumed about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of ACV and honey. In about 30 minutes to an hour, you'll feel much much better.
