HONEY: AN OVERVIEW
Honey is a perfect natural substance. It is the derivative of flower blossoms, creation and sustenance of the honeybee. Its production and harvest are environmentally benign, requiring neither physical nor chemical manipulation of our native lands. Honey's abundance ensures and indicates the fruitful pollination of much of the plant life upon which terrestrial creatures rely. Its carbohydrate concentration approaches absolute purity and its natural preservative qualities make it virtually nonperishable. Honey radiates a warm glow like the sun and reveals its inner self with a golden translucence of naked honesty. Its flavor is sweet music to the tongue. No wonder our ancestors regarded honey as dew from heaven, and that our most enduring mythologies proclaimed it divine!
