Honey contains natural sugars like glucose and fructose, which can crystallize over time, causing the honey to thicken and become grainy. However, some types of honey have a higher ratio of fructose to glucose, which makes them less likely to crystallize or go 'candy.' Honey that is high in fructose and low in glucose typically stays liquid for longer periods.

Can honey go sour. I have a new bottle from TJ that smells fermented?

Honey does not spoil in the same way as other foods because of its low water content and acidic pH. While it can crystallize or change in flavor over time, it does not typically go "sour" or ferment. The smell you're experiencing could be due to changes in the honey's composition or storage conditions.
