Who here eats, uses honeycomb on the regular? Or even semi-irregular? Why?
Also general honey thread.

honey combs remind me of that webm of that dog infested with bot flies, and when they pop all the grubs out of its skin, it looks like a honeycomb. Anyone got that webm?

I've had unfiltered honey and I think the boost in taste is well worth the """"inferior"""" (cloudy) appearance

It's not? That's a huge disappointment. I mean I figured it wouldn't be crispy, but I hoped it would be at least a little hard. That's honestly pretty sad to hear desu

You don't "eat" honeycomb. You just chew it and spit it out, like gum. It just becomes a big ball of wax that's not really digestible and will prolly give you the shits

I assumed beeswax was something else because everything marketed as honeycomb was crunchy. I was a kid, I just knew about the crunchy stuff in chocolate and icecream as being "pieces of honeycomb"

Are you sure you're not thinking of honeycomb toffee or hokey-pokey?

I'm thinking of all the shit that was honeycomb flavoured when I was a kid. Crunchies, violet crumble, icecream, anything that marketed itself as honeycomb was crunchy or had crunchy pieces of "honeycomb" in it.

Honeycomb is amazing. I sometimes use it like a slice of "bread" and spread peanut butter or almond butter over the top. If you like nuts you need to try this

It has different regional names.

I don't know what backwater third world country you're from, but that's a perfectly reasonable mistake. Where I come from, we have a popular ice cream flavour that's advertised as a "honeycomb ice cream" but instead uses honeycomb toffee.

this reminds me of this German doctor who went to south africa to help men with botched circumcisions (they have it done as adults, by a witchdoctor, with poor hygiene and bizarre practices like binding the member so tight with bandages that there's no blood flow). He's got a gallery of hundreds of pages of rotted, gangrenous cocks. What a silly continent.

That reminds me of hearing about how it's done in the Phillipines, usually just before a boy enters puberty. Wealthy families can afford to have a doctor do it, but poorer families still have to rely on smashing the kid's dick with a sharp rock and waiting for it to fall off from necrosis. I had a Filipino coworker explain this shit to me before he quickly confirmed his parents could afford a doctor.
