That is pretty neat. On that subject, can you guess what is the newest thing at the hospital where I work for treating bed sores and some other difficult to heal wounds? Medical grade honey.

What makes honey medical grade? Is it good with tea?

I'd assume they might pull out any solids such as pollen.

I'd assume they might pull out any solids such as pollen. Yes, plus it has been sterilized and tested for antimicrobial properties. I have read a study or two on this subject. For medical applications not all honey is created equal. A link www.medscape.com/viewarticle/588555ETA And the award for first thread derail goes to Redeyes!! My bad NoAm.

Honey is very important for food storage and medical purposes. We have everything from local to crystallized honey in ours.
