Manuka honey kicks ass. It's awesome on a sore throat, can be used for minor skin afflictions and burns, or skin afflictions that are unaffected by medications. Still, it's honey, and should not be used any place a baby will ingest it.

Trader Joe's sometimes carries Manuka honey. Beware of counterfeit honey, though. A lot of products labeled as honey or manuka honey are adulterated with sugar syrups or non-manuka honey.
