I have been printing my own comb honey labels on a DeskJet printer but
have been unable to find any transparent stock to print them on. I know
such stock exists because I've seen it on other product labels. I think it
would bee sharp to look through the label at comb honey. I can buy label
paper marked "clear" which is made by Avery but the product is actually
opaque. Does anyone know where I can get transparent paper I can print on?

   On the subject of honey in history... I have heard that Genghis Khan
liked to see the heads of his opposing generals. So G.K.'s  generals would
lop off a conquered generals head and transport it back to headquarters in
a sack filled with honey. I wonder if the honey was reused. Maybe they made
mead with it. ( ... bit of 'hair of the dog taste' but its got a kick.) Or
they could have used it in Christmas cake, its inedible anyways.
