No, I wouldn't recommend eating it. Plus it is naturally from bees so if it is out of dat, please don't eat it.

Honey is entirely sugar, which means that it is a preserve. Sugar does not "go off" or expire, so honey is safe to eat even when it is out of date. Likewise, golden syrup and treacle. The fact that honey comes from bees does not have any effect upon it's keeping qualities; butter is from cows but it still keeps for months. (In a similar way, foods which are entirely fat do not expire. Bacteria do not like growing in environments which have very little water content, so do not grow in foods which are entirely sugar or entirely fat. Hence why oil doesn't expire).
