And another thing!

Honey is deeply cool stuff. It is naturally clean, and though it may crystallize and become a solid (which can easily be reversed), it will never rot or go bad. It is extremely resistant to contamination. Think about it. It's perfectly safe to eat in its natural state, even with bugs crawling all over it. You can go out in the woods, tear open a hive, and start eating. You'll have to worry about getting stung, but not about food poisoning.
