DID YOU KNOW? π There are live enzymes in honey. π When in contact with a metal spoon, these enzymes die. π The best way to eat honey is with a wooden or plastic spoon. π Honey contains a substance that helps your brain work better. π Honey is one of the rare foods on Earth that alone can sustain human life. π One teaspoon of honey is enough to sustain human life for 24 hours. π Propolis, produced by bees, is one of the most powerful natural antibiotics. π Honey has no expiration date. π The bodies of great emperors were buried in golden coffins and covered with honey to prevent putrefaction. π The term "honeymoon" comes from the tradition of newlyweds consuming honey for fertility after the wedding. π A bee lives less than 40 days, visits at least 1,000 flowers, and produces less than a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. π One of the first coins had a bee symbol on it. Deep gratitude to the humble BEE! π

I doubt this includes the stuff sold in supermarkets which people are now saying may even include unlabled syrup blended in.
As a Tenn beekeeper, you are absolutely correct, always buy your honey from a local beekeeper, one who doesn't use any chem's and who doesn't feed their bees sugar!
I got my hands on a jar of honey from Johnsonville TN a few years back. Liquid gold. Best tasting honey I ever had, and we love honey in my household.
The Amish here in KY have some stellar honey too. I just got a JUG of it from Florida, and itβs not too bad. Nothing like that TN mountain honey β¦ holy shit is that stuff insanely good.
It includes pure 100% clever honey I believe... You have to be careful with the stuff you get at the supermarket... Cheers fren... βοΈβοΈβοΈ
