Back in the 1950s bee scientists in Russia did a lot of feeding of contained colonies with flavoured sugar syrups. That is, the bees were simply used to modify sucrose solutions and store it into combs. The resulting material (I won't call it honey...) was then extracted... One could conceivably produce all *sorts* of flavoured honey like material, limited only by what you could get them to 'take down'... > Now this is just hard to believe. Yes, it is true that honeys from > different floral sources have different flavors, but how in the > world can the honey taste like the fruit?
