>Honey bought in stores can be fed and I have never seen a case of anyone
doing so get their healthy hives sick.

Comment:

Very bad advice. Do not heed this. Honey from unknown sources should never
be fed to bees. There is never a good reason to do this. Sugar is cheap and
wholesome for honey bees. Their nutritional needs are primarily satisfied
from fresh pollen, anyway.
