AS we used to say here in the South, "Ya' done good".

I'm going to stockpile honey before the prices go through the roof.

The good news is that it stores quite well....one of the few natural products that needs no refrigeration or preservatives to keep from spoiling.

I have a jar in the pantry, that is a stock pile for me.

They found a jar of honey in one of the pyramids, still edible after thousands of years.

Recently it was discovered that honey produces small amounts of hydrogen pyroxide. That's why it's also good for wound healing.

When stored for a long time, honey may crystallize. The crystallization isn't harmful nor does it affect the flavor. If you want, it can be restored by placing the honey container in hot water until the crystals melt. Hot tap water will work. A really large container may require changing the water a few times.

It's probably some bacterial infection.

If you want some really great tasting honey, find some from the Central Valley of CA where they grow all those roses.

You will drool while you get the whipped butter and the warm, freshly baked bagels to put the honey on. And hot English Black tea with a dash of Limoncino del choistro in it. Bears have taste.
