You shouldn't give honey to infants under 12 months of age. There are two reasons for this:
1. Honey is almost pure sugar. Infants don't need the extra sugar, and delicate digestive systems could struggle to cope with it.
2. There is a risk, albeit a very small one, that there could be botulinum spores in honey. Honey is a natural bactericide and fungicide, but botulinum spores can survive in honey. There would not be enough to affect an older child or an adult, but it could affect a young baby. It's not worth the risk.
yes

What does tupelo honey taste like and what does it look like?
Depends on who you ask and of course the region where the honey was taken. It is refered to as the "sweetest honey" and will not granulate. http://cookandeat.com/2007/01/08/shes-as-sweet-as/ On my first taste of the honey, I was quite taken aback. It almost didn't even taste like honey to me, it had such a bright pine-like flavor, almost like sucking on a sweet Christmas tree. As I've started using it more, I've really become attached to the unique taste, and find that I miss it in other honey. http://n-ergetics.com/Scripts/prodView.asp?idProduct=287 This honey smells like a bouquet of flowers, and taste like flowers smell. The sweetest honey known, tupelo does not crystallize readily. http://www.tupelohoney.org/ Honey produced from only the White Tupelo is the only honey that will not granulate. Due to it's high laevulose (44.3%), low dextrose (29.98%) ratio (average), doctors have been able to recommend some diabetic patients to consume Tupelo Honey

yes, the honeycomb found in a bottle of honey is edible. you can eat it with a spoon (though it is a little waxy) or you can put it in tea. i have heard of making a sandwich with it also. i still have yet to find any recipes that use it though.
it is chewy, but not in a gum kinda way. some people just chew it til honey is gone and spit out wax, others just eat it anyway. it tastes delicious to me and better than store bought honey. just remember not to give honey to infants, due to spores that their little bodies can't handle

Honey, when mixed with eggs and some flour, is an effective skin moisturizer. Best of all, it is gently formulated, so people with sensitive skin can use it. Mix four tablespoons of honey with a couple of egg whites and a few tablespoons of flour, depending on your desired consistency. Stir the mixture until it thickens.
