I love honey, too, but for me it is like any other exploited and abused animal. I won’t consume a product if it is going to perpetuate cruelty or disdain for wildlife or domestic animals. I certainly don’t need it to survive. Cows produce milk for their calf, the same way bees produce honey for their hives. It really is not meant for us or ours to just take or exploit. And besides, there are so many wonderful alternatives now! Scientists are discovering that bees are mysteriously disappearing, and one can imagine the consequences, because plants need bees for pollination. I think a lot of people are confused about honey the same way many are confused about dairy. Many people believe that it’s okay to consume dairy because it is not meat. They don’t really understand about the mass cruelty involved in factory farming and dairy farming. I’m glad I can share this information with people who really do care about this planet and all it’s creatures, too.
