Honey Never Spoils

from Did You Know Hosted by Jody Colvard

Did you know that honey is one of the only foods on Earth that never spoils? In this episode of Did You Know?, we explore the fascinating science behind honey’s incredible shelf life, from its low moisture and natural acidity to the powerful enzymes added by bees that prevent bacteria from growing. Discover how jars of honey found in ancient tombs remain perfectly preserved after thousands of years, and why this simple, golden substance is one of nature’s most remarkable creations.
