HONY FOOD 

 Almost everyone has heard of it, but most do not know exactly what honey is or how it is made.

In short, it is a sweet food made by bees using  the nectar of flowers. Bees are the best known honey producer and they are the only insect that produces honey in quantity. It is  much more than a natural sweetener. It is a functional food, which means that it is a natural food with health benefits. 

Honey is a sticky slimy material that is extremely sweet. It can also have a fairly floral, fruity or woody flavor. Depending on the type of honey or the type of flower, It is possible that a specific flavor can be distinguished.

Honey is an alternative food to natural sugar, without additives which adapts to all cooking processes and has an indefinite shelf life. It is made by bees and stored in structures called honeycombs.
