TIL that honey never spoils. Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3000 years old and still perfectly edible.
As a beekeeper,I’m love reading these kind of posts.
Raw honey, (which mean’s that it hasn’t been filtered (it can be screened, to remove bigger pieces), and hasn’t been pasteurized) has some great healing properties.
Filtering removes the propolis and pollen, both which can be beneficial. Heating kills off the microbes (good guys!).
Look up propolis for some interesting read on its anti microbial, anti fungal and anti viral properties.
