How to Buy Honey Online
Scorched earth cuisine may sound like the stuff of outlandish dreams, but it is increasingly becoming a reality. Courtesy of smear campaigns by the global beekeepers and an abundance of bad press, many people believe that the world's honey supplies are at grave risk of being lost forever.
Subtle changes are slowly taking place in the way we produce honey. The old way of using stinging nettles to kill pests has been replaced by the use of human weeds. This more humane approach has been looked upon favorably, with one scientist stating "If we banned weed killing in crops, we might as well ban art, philosophy, medicine and the building trade" ( chuckling darkly).
The genetic modifications have also increased the honeybee population worldwide. This has helped increase the amount of honey bee hybrids, and the pollination costs have gone up, as has the apogee of the worker bee, thus balance in the beekeeping industry.
However, Kloppenberg states "The greatest threat to the world's honey bee population is the Cultivian Beekeepers. They are getting rich off the trade of glue traps. The beekeepers get aata few extra hairs, but that is as far as they go. They are destroying the bee species by putting glue traps near their hives. This is going to have a major effect on the global bee population."
Kloosberg also argues that the modifications have degraded the genetic make-up of the honey bee. "The recent demand has been for genetic modifications, to make the bees sterile, and for reducing the size of the bee colony. These genetic modifications have created alessigella very similar to the worthless alfalfa plant. As a result the Honey Bees are less healthy, and they are going to have a bad effect on the Honey bee gene pool."
He argues that beekeepers are not helping themselves sustainable by continuously using genetic modifications. "The problem is that the past two years, a new variant of the bee has been found. The genetic make-up is almost the same as the weakling bee, but it has some very bad specific characteristics. The bee in these cases is known as the European Bees, and they have been found to have caused Colony Collapse Disorder."
The greatest concern though is that the pollination of Royal Jelly is International. The Royal Jelly pollinates a number of crops in the United States, and is also farmed in many other countries. The beehive has been shown to pollinate using the pollen of other species as well.
So we can be pretty sure that the last time Royal Jelly was pollinated in the United States was with the help of European bees, but US bees aren't going to be able to replenish the species.
Now that you know that the destination of your honey is important, make sure that you have stocked up. It's possible to buy honey online, but it's not the same as the fresh juice that comes from the honeydew flowers.
Ordering honey online can be a little tricky, but it's not impossible. Here are some things to keep in mind:
When you buy a source of honey that has been processed, it's recommended that you avoid buying honey off the Internet.
It's always a good idea to compare prices, and see what kind of promotions are available. You may be able to save money by paying a little more when you buy in quantity.
Try not to buy honey that has been processed, and do look for that fresh, raw impression of the honey. This will be sent to you, and you will not be able to use it straight away.
thoroughly clean your honey comb with hot water, and grocer's soap after removing the lid. You'll need to work on the exterior, removing stinging nettles, and wash it thoroughly. The stinging nettle is actually the doing of the bees. They use it to gather the nectar that is found on the honey comb.
Your ancient history? Yes, this is relatively recent. The honey industry doing it the old fashion way was done by bio-engineers. Man is not capable of producing anything comparable to that which is found in nature. But then, as everyone knows, man is capable of something within the natural realm. Questions being asked now are not so much "would you like fries with that?" or "would you like chips with that?" They are more along the lines of "would you like this flavored meal made with this?" or "would you like this based meal with this?" Maybe you like this flavored meal with this or that, but the proper wording is "Would you like this flavored meal with this or that?" There is a lot more than going over the bored-runner routine.
But seriously, why not go classic?
