Is Honey really so bad for us?

[Finman]

But distilling is illegal Finnman!

IT is not my problem, any more. I stopped distilling when I could not eate anything for 3 days. Year was something 1968

Do not bother. Most people even do not touch honey, and they are alive.
Pollen granules have no meaning in human nutrition.

It is unefficient food hunting if a human starts to lick pollen from flowers. It is easier to get pollen directly from flowers than from honey.

Honey has very few pollen granules because bee stomach has a sieve organ which takes granules off.

And if a human needs protein from beehive, he eates the brood from nest

You're missing the point. I'm not talking about relevance in nutrition or about honey being good or bad, I'm just saying it makes a difference.

If you think that drinking wine is just a question of imbibing alcohol at a certain dilution, and you think taste and flavour are irrelevant I seriously pity you.

I have an education of biological researcher in university. If I would believe all nice carbage in this world, I would bend over to my academic education.

You are pity, seriously.
Couple of pollen granules make difference?... In real life it does not.

Taste and flavour... That is why honey is 20 times more expencive than sugar. That is why you have tongue and nose.

I do not like wines. Red wine mix my head and white wine mix my stomack.

When they start winemaking, the juice is first sterilized. No one makes wine with natural yeasts. Yeast is selected and cultivated. At the end wine is sterilized chemically. Otherwise yeast starts to eate dead yeast cells, and aroma is from hell.

Thank you for proving my point.

Thank you for proving my point.

Your point? Before that I did not knew why I has a nose. Your idea? Good to know that at the age of 70 .

(why everything, like nose, is invented by someone)

I bet that when you make mead from your all rubbish honey, that will make you sick. Better to distill it first.

sorry couldnt resist

The problem is: the BBC report was probably talking about commercial honey.

You know the stuff: no pollen (filtered out), no flavour (processed out), no enzymes (cooked out).


Once people taste real honey with flavour and pollen, and scent, they tend to come back for more..

no pollen ? probably never saw a bee.. . let alone a flower

Beekeepers advertising honey to each other? What is going on?

This year I got a good amount of forest honey. It has been foraged from tree leaves. It is juices of aphids.

IT surely is different than rape honey. One sign is that it does not have aroma of flowers. But it has pollen because it is mixed in the hive with flower honey and with pollen which bees carry to larvae.
