The jar of honey sitting in your kitchen cabinet could last for decades and never spoil.
When it comes to Mother Nature’s culinary wonders, honey tops the list. Not only is it a delicious natural sweetener, but it also boasts a truly mind-blowing fact: honey never spoils and can last for more than 2000 years.
Imagine stumbling upon an ancient tomb or archaeological site dating back thousands of years. Among the artefacts and relics, what could you find? Well, there’s a good chance you might discover pots of honey that are still perfectly edible. Archaeologists have uncovered pots of honey in Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old, and guess what? They were still as good as the day they were sealed.
