Lactnet's own Cathy Watson Genna discusses use of Medihoney in her book
"Selecting and Using BF Tools" at p. 26-27.  Irradiation kills spores (so no
botulism worries).  It is FDA approved as a wound dressing and may be used
on infected and non-healing wounds (unlike hydrogel pads).  Because honey is
water soluble, mom can gently rinse it off before a feed.
