raw honey
Straight from hive
Raw honey is honey that hasn't been heated or processed beyond straining.
Unlike commercial honey, which is pasteurized and filtered, raw honey retains pollen, enzymes, and other natural compounds.
Advocates claim health benefits, though these are debated: She swears by a spoonful of raw honey for allergies.
The texture is often cloudier and thicker than processed varieties.
