Bee Free Honee was an apple-based vegan alternative to honey that achieved recognition and funding from Shark Tank. Produced from apples, lemon juice, and cane sugar, it could be used as a replacement for honey in recipes. The product could be consumed by young children and by people with an allergy to honey. In 2019, the company went out of business.

Huh.

That just sounds like simple syrup.

yeah, fake honey isn't just a solved problem, it's so solved that it's becoming a problem in and of itself.
Barely anyone notices even the slightest difference between real honey and generic syrup with some honeycomb in it, and that's before we even get into actual fake honey!

Why are people like this? Vegans don't have a problem with pollination but with exploitation. Honey bees are also eating the same food like wild bees. Go figure if honey bees are good for protecting wild bees ...

Favourite post of the day. Thank you!

I would prefer if my food is bee pollinated... Because then I'll feel less doom about environmental collapse.

One takes honey from the bees the other doesn't. More of a maple syrup for my substitute kinda guy tho

Sure, but you don't need to keep the bees in the "make honey for me and it gets the smoke again" torture houses. Pretty sure that's 800% more vegan than normal honey from that alone.
