knowing that these days, there are so many brand and kinds of honey in the market, which is most recommended for highest nuritional content? when it states "organic whatever" on the bottle, is it really organic? i though all honeys are organic, since we need the bees to make the honey in the first place? Currently i'm eating this particular brand "NuZeaBee" Organic Wild Honey. I find it good texture. http://www.autho-rity.info/2010/01/30/nuze...nic-wild-honey/ Any comments? And is it true that we can only use wooden or plastic spoon to scoop the honey and not metal spoons? But when they process the honey, don't they use metal equipments or machinery? I need honey that has high antioxidants, anti-microbal, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory properties.

If there's one natural food (aka can be eaten raw) that I absolutely love, it's honey. Yes, there are countless varieties from around the world, but for this story, we'll talk about the kind that comes straight out of a hive, complete with honeycomb. I'm not an expert on this topic, but every time I consume raw, unprocessed honey, it tastes a lot better compared to honey that comes in a jar. No squeeze-bottle honey for me, please. Perhaps it's just my imagination, but raw honey doesn't leave me with that cloyingly sweet taste that seems to go on forever. I love it when it's paired with toast with slices of butter or with Greek yoghurt with granola on the side. Admittedly, I get drawn to drinks with honey, too. Lots of bubble tea shops sell a version of 'green tea with honey', and I always find this hard to resist. I must constantly remind myself to save the calories for the actual honey with honeycomb that I prefer. Now, apart from the lovely viscous food itself, I'm also fascinated (but only a little disturbed) by how it's produced by thousands of honeybees. The process is intriguing. Each honeybee carries a little nectar back to its hive before digesting it to break it down into simple sugars and regurgitating the product into an individual honeycomb. For the honey to become viscous and gooey, the bees use their wings to fan the honeycomb to heat it and reduce the moisture content. Yes, honey is regurgitated nectar (eww), yet it's delectable and delicious. Another interesting fact is that honey is also food for the bees. So, when beekeepers harvest it, they ensure to leave enough so that the colony survives to make more honey. Fascinating. – Jeremy (Main image: Benyamin Bohlouli, Unsplash)

Folks please take note that there is a recall on this Evergreen brand of Manuka honey from NZ. I myself have bought a few tubs and it is selling at many department stores like Robinson and Metro. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/recall-of-manuka-honey/2552384.html http://www.ava.gov.sg/docs/default-source/press-releases/media-release_recall-of-evergreen-life-manuka-honey-from-new-zealand.pdf
