HONEY TIME LAPSE

Honey time lapses are among the most requested videos I receive. While many know that honey possesses antibacterial properties and naturally preserves itself, there's still a fascination to watch it over an extended period.
Enjoy Honey Time Lapse!

Fun Fact: Just like fingerprints, no two honey varieties taste exactly the same. The flavor and texture are influenced by the types of flowers the bees visit.
(In case you are new here, I always put a fun fact in my video descriptions.)

[@carnap355]

why though? its just sugar with very little additional nutrients

[@arcaears]

Honey bees are really fine, their population is many, many times over the natural wildlife population, and in North America they are livestock only, never been a wild animal. It's the other bees that we should be worried about, especially in North America where native bees are highly threatened!

[@GigsVT]

You know, almost no change can be just as fascinating as rapid change. So interesting that bees can make something that preserves so well. Almost any other eatable fluid would have completely evaporated all the water out of it and just left a crusty flaky stain… honey walks up to a time-laps like “hold my mead…”

[@margret632]

It's interesting that there weren't more insects but it also seems like the lack of moisture could be a factor at the lack of interaction. The parts that were moving though I wonder if it was some type of bacteria that tried to develop. But what an amazing substance honey is, it could probably be preserved forever in a clean and sealed container

[@dwerg1]

Definitely seems like a low humidity environment just made a bit of the water evaporate from it, leaving it too concentrated for anything to grow on it. I'd be interested to see what a high humidity environment would do. My guess is that it might absorb enough moisture from the air to dilute it enough for molds and bacteria to attack it.

[@TallicatGames]

Honey does not go bad. There was honey found in King Tut's tomb that was still completely edible.

Thanks! That beetle sure gave us a little twist. I'm glad you found the video interesting!

[@3dplanet100]

As of now, the video will be ready in less than 2 hours! My prediction: if insects are not introduced, the honey would remain the same, just maybe a slight difference in color. If ants comes, you will see how the honey would slowly reduce. If flyes comes, you probably would see some mold in the area around where the flyes lands.

Honey doesn't go bad

[@sefy5082]

Simple and to the point. I like it. I'm very curious though if something will happen or grow on it or something. Maybe it needs to be properly stored? I've had honey that seemed to go bad before but so knows if anything was added to it.

[@user-bq8zq5ic8v]

wait it the good original honey they stuff they sell in supermarket or walmart etc simply isnt as good@@sefy5082

[@travv88]

it depends on the water content of the honey. i believe above a certain level of water content it can go bad.

[@RealMTBAddict]

@@travv88 I meant to say raw honey. I don't use fake honey. Honey was found in an Egyptian tomb and was still good.

[@PhotoOwl]

Engaging with viewers during the premiere makes it special. Glad you had fun!

[@DavidFrat123]

Honey is hygroscopic- this means it will absorb water from the atmosphere. Once the water content rises above 20%, honey will ferment. This is why honey stored correctly in jars stays good- sealed away from absorbing more water. I suspect the honey hidden away behind the wax cappings will be fine, but the honey on the plate will ferment eventually.

[@solidali6623]

I love how honey looks. I wanna eat it. no, I'm not a bear🐻‍❄️. I SWEAR I'm not a damn bear I'm just a human who happend to be hungry and I'm waiting for the premiere to start there's nothing bear-like in that!!! What do you mean that's not evidence?

I think I heard the reason honey doesn’t go bad is because it’s like the dead sea (on the opposite spectrum of taste), so sweet that it’s deadly for stuff to grow and thrive on it. Although ants can definitely “spoil” it out by drinking off of it, the room here seems clean and in good condition.

[@thefrightofthenight8554]
