How do you get honey from bees?
Bees collect nectar from flowers and store it in special honey stomachs. They return to the hive and regurgitate the nectar into the honeycomb. Beekeepers remove the honey from the honeycomb.
Do bees throw up honey?
Yup. Honey is bee barf. Bees collect nectar from flowers and store it in "honey stomachs," separate from their true stomachs. When they return to the hive, they regurgitate the nectar and either contact other worker bees for more processing or dump it directly into the honeycomb. It may be disgusting to think about thousands of honey bees lining up and regurgitate together to make honey, but humans have harvested bee barf and eaten it for thousands of years. Incidentally, honey is the only insect-created food that humans can eat.
How do honey bees get food?
Worker bees leave the hive and go and find flowers. They collect the nectar and pollen from these flowers and return to the hive with this in their stomachs and on their legs. This is then regurgitated into storage compartments in the hive and turned into honey. The bee colony lives on this honey.
