Honey Tip of the Day

By -

Ever notice that your kitchen's own honey bear (no wait, this kind) always reads, "Do not feed to infants under the age of one year old?" It's true. I asked myself,

"Self, why does this matter?"
We speculated everything from choking hazard to allergies to local pollen. But according to a reliable web source, the reason babies can't eat honey is because honey can naturally contain bacteria that adults can easily process, but may cause infant botulism. I don't think it's fatal in most cases, but doesn't sound like fun either. So, if you got little noofers (a note from the editor: Jay, I think you meant "ankle biters") running around, keep 'em away from the honey bear!

Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.
