Quoting a random vegan site out there is the scientific approach.

Easy there queen bee. No need to get hyperventilated over a losing argument. See none of this would have happened if you didn't go out of your way and continue judging people. A little respect goes a long way but you still seem to lack it.

"Enslaved" - but then from the same article .... "Bees may travel as far as 55,000 miles and visit more than two million flowers to gather enough nectar to make just a pound of honey" (NHB). Bees gather pollen in sacs Click to see a bee with full pollen sacs. and nectar from the flowers. "

Oh yes, I am so overworked, lying in bed, warm in my covers. Listen, and I am not losing anything ok. Losing would be me changing my mind over this whole thing, but I am not changing my mind, and I am sticking up to what I believe in. We can argue this till we are blue in the face, and I would say more people believe that honey is not a vegan product. And guess what, I don't need respect for you or anyone else. I have respect for myself, the people I love, and the animals I choose to help on the Earth. I know I don't have respect for most the people on this post, including you. You are also being disrespectful throwing things into my face and arguing with me. Practice what you preach honey, a little yes a long way...

Of all the silly things I have seen on this thread, "professional bee keeping degree" used in an argument is the funniest so far.

Phew - thanks goodness after 7 pages.... how about a ;-)

Seriously - I am sure the bees are all sleeping much better tonight knowing they have you championing their cause on MFP ;-)

So you are 'allowed' to voice your opinion, but others aren't.

You aren't a vegan and really could have done vegans a huge favour by not starting this thread. Vegans have a bad name, because people like you subject everyone to your ill thought out and incorrect opinions. No wonder so many people refuse to identify themselves publicly as vegan.

How about encouraging and supporting those that are reducing their use of animal products whatever their reasons? If somebody is 'almost' vegan then the odd bit of honey isn't really a disaster is it?

I've been vegetarian for *cough*27years*cough* and was vegan for about 7 months in 1987. In 1987 the vegan world was filled with only carob and disappointment..... I keep meaning to go back to it if only to break my addiction to cheese

You have to stand up for bees i mean if you don't who else will. I would but last time i did i stepped on like two of them and yeah it was not pretty.

Enroll in an entomology class and focus on hymenoptera then. I can breed you a healthy colony without any genetic vulnerabilities or super bees that are less prone to insecticides but that be it.

Lol. Thank you, I feel so much better about myself now!. Hey, I just think everything on this planet needs someone to love em. Like I have a tarantula. I guess I have a thing for invertebrates. Some one has to do it.

I agree with you - I for one would be devastated if there was no more honey to eat, drink and apply to my wounds..........

Again, I quite like this. You know your stuff. Or at least Wikipedia'ed it. Touche.

Question is it better for me to eat honey and not spray raid the bee's nests around my house in the spring in summer Or to give up honey and air attack the stinging *kitten*? Just wondering

Sorry, will let you have your popcorn peacefully It's been a loooong time since I last had popcorn. Not trying to avoid it particularly but I always forget buying some when I go shopping :grumble:
