> That info is also a bit in contrast with Dennis report on better survivability on HFCS than honey.

But the article was about immune response. Not survival. Honey may be healthier for bees on the whole, but they may winter better on more refined food. The buildup of waste products in the bee's body during winter is a major cause of winter mortality. Not an either/or issue.
