Many would say, "Never. Honey has an indefinite shelf life."

That is true only if the honey is stored sealed and at proper temperatures. Temperatures over 81°F degrade the honey and could start fermentation. See Related Links.

There has been honey found in the pyramids from ancient times, and all it needs is to be heated, and it's good enough to eat again.
Forever!

They found some honey in vessels dating from ancient Egypt era and it was still eatable!
Honey will crystallize, but if it is kept tightly stored it can last forever.

It can crystalize ,but not spoil,because it cannot have bacteria in it.

I suppose, but it takes a lot for honey to go bad. (Unless it has been contaminated or mized wiht something else, honey is good for years for its shelf-life.)

Honey can go bad, but it literally takes years. Like, more than a decade or two, for honey to go bad.
