    Honey expires and honey has an expiration date. In general, honey has a shelf life of 18 months. Honey should be kept at a low temperature and protected from light.

    There are many scientific studies and practices that prove that honey actually has a strong antibacterial ability. Real pure honey has strong antibacterial ability and will not spoil after a long time.

    Usually honey will become more sour after expiration and spoiling, and it will become very thin and viscous, honey spoilage is mainly caused by the increase in temperature, so keeping honey in the refrigerator can delay its shelf life. After the honey deteriorates, there will be a lot of gray bubbles on the honey, which proves that a certain part of the organic matter in the honey is decomposed and fermented, bubbling, and the honey is inedible at this time.

    In the "GB18796-2005" honey production standard implemented by the state in 06, it is mandatory for honey companies to indicate that it is two years on bee products. Most companies also target two years. Some honey companies target 18 months.

    If you see honey crystals, there is nothing in the real world and you can eat it. Crystallization is only a difference in state and does not affect the quality. If your honey is pure enough.

    Why does honey last so long? According to nutrition experts, because bees only take away the sugar from the flowers during the process of collecting nectar, the water content in honey is very low, and it is a very concentrated sugar solution. Generally, naturally ripened honey contains only 18% water, and the composition of honey is mainly fructose and glucose.

    When the concentration of a solution reaches a certain value, the osmotic pressure inside the solution becomes very high. A solution with high osmolarity is not suitable for cell growth, because a solution with high osmolarity will suck out the water in the cell under the action of osmotic pressure, and the cell will die after dehydration. Therefore, it is difficult for the vast majority of microorganisms to survive in honey, and honey without microbial destruction is naturally difficult to deteriorate.

    Honey generally rarely expires because it contains acids and high concentrations of sugars, and has a water content of less than 20%, so it has a longer shelf life. However, as a food, it usually has a shelf life of 18 months or 2 years in the market.

    Whether it can be eaten depends on whether it is spoiled or not, spoiled is inedible, and it can be eaten without spoilage, but it is still recommended to eat it as much as possible within the shelf life.

    The shelf life of honey products on the market is generally 18 months or 2 years, but due to the acidic substances and high concentration of sugars in honey, the water content of mature honey is less than 20%. Therefore, if it is well preserved, honey can continue to be consumed beyond its expiration date.

It can be seen that truly mature honey is completely edible after a long time, and there is no strict shelf life, but as a food market, according to the "Food Law", the shelf life is required to be marked on the food commodity, so honey manufacturers generally set the shelf life of honey at 2 years. >>>More
