Have been a cycle of VO2 work. Noticed that I have been loving Honey in the same time frame. Have a cream cheese Bagle, have to put Honey on it + 1-2 spoon fulls from jar directly to taste buds. Ohhh, that makes the mouth happy. Same with Green Tea. 1 spoon full for Tea and 2 for mouth...lol. I've never craved Honey like this before. Sure it has something to do with burning, mostly, carbs during workout.
Now I know why Bears and other wild animals suffer being stung to get the Honey out of a Bee hive.
Anyone else experience these kind of cravings?
Granted, I have a sweet tooth anyhow, but never for Honey.

I suck lots of honey straight from the bottle during training and racing. Usually just before a ride or race. The stuff is delicious.

Tey to get raw hoent from your area. Some say it will help w/allergies but only from your area. i eat about a pound and a half per week.
1 1/2 pounds per week! Wow. It's taken me a few months to go through 2 lbs. ...lol Sounds like I need to increase Honey consumption. Might help get rid of cravings for candy bars and sodas, too
I live in an agricultural area. No shortage of Bees, Honey or Allergies here.

I have some allergies. Might have to try that. Honey's a great tasting simple carb anyway.

What's beekeeping like? I'm afraid they'd all die on me in winter or something.

Don't use wild Bees. Them little bastards are mean!!!!
A few hundred built a hive in the ex's backyard. I got stung once on the ear, son got stung twice in the neck and his mom got stung three times in the back. They were even attacking a ball lyeing in the grass.
The bees left when the weather got cold and rainy. Went into backyard and found the hive. They dug a hole in dirt pile. The hive was about the size of a Soccer ball.

sounds like you got some mean bees. I think it would be awesome to have a garden and bees and whatnot... maybe that will be my summer project.

Honey bees don't live in the dirt .
The winter I only provide sugar water for food.
They maintain core temp for the developing young by "Balling"(gathering in a larger mass) around the young eggs..ect

Getting slightly off topic. What kind of Bees will make a hive in the dirt?
If they're not honey bees, that explains why local bee keepers wouldn't come and get them.

Sounds like yellowjackets. Those are some mean little bees.

yellowjackets are wasps not bees...

I was talking about the little bees that look like honeybees but are smaller. They call em yellowjackets around here.
