I assume the question is more to do with the bee's honey crop and its ability to carry nectar rather than its true digestive stomach, the ventriculus.

Did you know that honey is actually bee's vomit?
Well, technically, yes, but barf is when your stomach cannot handle what's in there. It's REALLY called regurgitation because barfing is an unwilling act, while regurgitation is a forced act on the body. Honey is just the regurgitation from a bee, so it isn't bee's barf, but bee's regurgitation.----And, strictly speaking, nectar is carried in the bee's honey crop, which is not part of the digestive tract, so it is not being regurgitated from the stomach -- so is not barf.
