I've found it challenging to get the folks I sell to locally (NC Sandhills)
interested in comb honey, but I was raised on it myself.

Based on my experience, the absolutely best way to eat comb honey is to
apply it along with a bit of butter to a piping hot, right from the oven,
old-fashioned, homemade Southern baking powder biscuit -- preferably one
made by my Momma or Grandmomma. Comb disappears, heat of the biscuit
releases the fragrance and taste the bees locked in the comb . . . fabulous.

(Parenthetically, I wonder if there's something about the acidity of the
honey combined with the alkalinity of the baking soda or baking powder in
the biscuit that helps make this such a winning combination?)

Another thought: Encourage comb honey newcomers to find an attractive small
glass candy dish with a lid and a flat bottom. Place this on the center of
the kitchen table and place in it the comb honey cut from the ross rounds
or removed from the cut comb package. We've found this encourages use of
the honey when a family member "just wants a taste of something sweet."
