If you have been to Dean & Deluca or Whole Foods lately, you have probably seen various jars of honey priced at $20 or more. While you could easily purchase a jar of the same size at your regular supermarket for just $5, below are three reasons why you should make the pricier investment:1. Preserve nature's candy! Honey is a natural product produced by bees pollinating flower pollen. Industrial honey is created by an unnatural process in which bees are fed sugar syrup. This is actually bad for the bees.
2. The taste difference between an industrial jar of honey and an artisanal honey is tremendous. At the moment, my favorite honey is produced from bees pollinating heather plants that grow on the hillsides of the Landes region in France. It has an intense floral aroma with lingering notes of caramel.
