HONEY : AN ETERNAL LIQUID
Honey is the only food that does not spoil while in an edible state.
Practically, you could eat 3000 year old honey
- It is because of its water content(17%) being lesser than that of bacteria or fungi.
- Lower water content results in dehydration of bacteria and so the honey have resistance to spoiling.
- Its Acidity and the presence of hydrogen peroxide are more factors for its eternal life.
