Well, technically, yes, but barf is when your stomach cannot handle what's in there. It's REALLY called regurgitation because barfing is an unwilling act, while regurgitation is a forced act on the body. Honey is just the regurgitation from a bee, so it isn't bee's barf, but bee's regurgitation.

And, strictly speaking, nectar is carried in the bee's honey crop, which is not part of the digestive tract, so it is not being regurgitated from the stomach -- so is not barf.

What are the uses of a honey bee hive?

Do bees like honey or nectar?

Bees like honey and nectar even though they need nectar in order to produce honey. Floral nectar is rich in the sucrose that gives bees energy to fly from flower to flower and transport nectar and pollen loads back to the hive or nest. Back at the hive or nest, the bee uses the enzyme invertase to transform nectar into dextrose- and laevulose-rich solutions that we know as carbohydrate-rich honey.

The thing is, there's something you should know: honey is made from regurgitated flower nectar. ...

So, honey is really the vomit of many bees combined. sorry for it!


How do you know bees are eating honey?

I can assure you I am no expert, but I am pretty sure that bees do not eat their honey. What they do is fly around to flowers, take the nectar, and bring it back to thier hive to make honey. So actually yes, I guess they do eat honey. But they'd do it in their hive, so you'd never see them.


What is the mixture of honey?

Mainly nectar and pollen regurgitated repeatedly. Regurgitate means to spit up after being swallowed, but it cannot be used in place of the word 'vomit'. Honey is to feed the starving bee larvae as food but the bees' effort goes to waste as we steal honey and consume it as OUR food. Did you know that just a large tablespoon of honey takes over a million flowers? And bees work until they DIE. They work the moment they are born!
