On feeding honey:
 
The reason I won't feed honey of uncertain origin to bees is that doing so is
a great way to spread foulbrood around.   I have fed my bees unsellable high
moisture honey from my own hives (no foulbrood) with no problems.
 
If heated honey is bad for the bees, why don't we don't get problems when
feeding high strength sugar syrup (which we have to practically boil to
make)?
