Raw Honey Sounds Great, But What Is It?
No, this isn’t the latest health fad, some new paleo diet, or some concoction organic food marketers made up recently to get people buying more honey.
Raw honey has been around for, well, as long as bees have been around on this earth!
Raw honey is what people used to eat before we began ruining our food with over processing to extend food stock shelf life and make more money.
Raw honey is exactly what it sounds like – honey that is raw, unprocessed, unpasteurized, and straight from the beehive.
Raw honey is what bees produce directly in the hive.
It is what is scraped directly from the honey comb and drained into jars after a light filtering to remove chunks of wax.
When we talk about raw honey, we aren’t talking about some new item on the food market, but something so old, so original, so natural, that it was almost forgotten.
