Trivia info from a science magazine: Honey is the only food that never spoils. As long as it’s pure that is.
Another little fact: If you have yeast infection in your system and you’d need to reduce/cut off sugar consumption as it feeds the yeast, you can actually still eat honey despite it being sweet. As other answers in this thread have answered – the bacteria or fungi can’t consume it.
