Anyway I will see what I can do with my microwave, maybe I will get lucky
and it will run all over the place and I will be forced to replace it as
it's very old, very low powered, but its paid for which is about the only
good thing I can say for it.

I am sure with pure honey it will also be somewhat hygroscopic unless its
cooked as directed, but even then these type bars need to be as much seeds
as you can get into them as they tend to keep them dry.
