Perhaps not, but I can calmly assure you, I wouldn't touch the stuff,
wouldn't even put it on someone else's food.  If you were to see firsthand
how actual honey is extracted, the facility, the entire process, you would.
well, suffice it to say a honey extraction facility is the vegetarian's
equivalent of a slaughterhouse.  

 

No, that is an understatement, slaughterhouses are waaaay more closely
regulated.  They let beekeepers pretty much do whatever they want, since no
one actually gets sick from it.  

 

You have heard me go on about how our digestive systems can handle bugs, ja?
How do I know?  Well, I know that if the bugs are crushed and their, um.
whatever is inside a bug gets into honey from the centrifugal extractor, it
doesn't seem to harm anyone, ja?  Have you ever heard of anyone getting sick
from honey?  I haven't.  So bug guts won't hurt you a bit.  If you are the
squicky type and like honey, I advise you not ask too many questions.  {8^D


 

I used to like honey, until I worked for a beekeeper.  Haven't touched it
since, don't intend to take it upward.
