Is honey a meme? Does utilizing it over sugar boast any benefit

I think the largest benefit of honey over sugar is that it tastes much better.

It tastes different. It's not healthier though.

Raw honey is good for illnesses, I fought a bad throat infection using raw honey and chili powder instead of antibiotics.

Man I'd love to keep bees. Too bad I don't have the garden for it.

It's certainly better than just plain sugar nutrient wise

Honey isn't really any healthier than sugar from what I know, but it does taste way better- and that flavor varies wildly by variety and location, way more than I'd have thought before I started trying different ones.

For example, something like borage honey is exceedingly mild, creamy almost, while say blueberry is boldercand fruity tasting and buckwheat honey is almost like a floral molasses.

I have a friend that keeps bees and has given me a shitload (like 8 pounds) of blackberry honey. Planning on trying a few new things with it, like barrel aging some (have a little countertop sized cask another buddy made that I charred) and making mead vinegar.

As in honey collected from blackberry flowers or honey with blackberries?
