Why does honey take a long time to expire?


Honey and wáter
The main reason why honey keeps for so long is because it contains little
water. The bees, in their harvesting process, try to remove the moisture from
the honey to leave it much thicker, as well as more delicious.
The acidity of honey
Honey is very acidic and microorganisms do not like acidity.
Many people think that honey never expires, however this is not entirely
true, if we have honey in a suitable environment it can be kept for longer. In
other words, it does have an expiration date, although the truth is that it is
capable of lasting without any additives for a long period of time. That is why
honey expires after approximately three years.
