One surprising truth is that honey never spoils; archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible. This longevity is due to honey's low moisture content and acidic pH, which create an inhospitable environment for bacteria and microorganisms. Additionally, honey's natural preservatives, like hydrogen peroxide, contribute to its remarkable shelf life. Thus, the idea that food spoils over time doesn't apply to honey.
