okay what the fuck is going on with honey
it has antimicrobial and other medicinal properties despite being literally sugar (ie microbe food)
it is almost chemically identical with hfcs but is healthy somehow
look at this shit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey#Medical_use_and_research
like, its close enough to hfcs that a lot of honey in stores is actually cut with it, and the regulators cant tell the difference https://www.foodsafetynews.com/2011/11/tests-show-most-store-honey-isnt-honey/#.Ud8ATBZpctt
furious googling of "are bees magic" reveals that bees have powerful magical properties according to internet witches and also that there is a minecraft mod with magic bees
hmm i bet when honey is filtered (and then cut with hfcs) so that it looks nice for store shelves it loses its magic
some quick searches confirm my suspicion

Lots of people suffering from allergies and pollen right now. We should compile a thread of tips and tricks for dealing with the seasonal stuff - I'll start.
I've heard that eating local honey can help.
