We heard about the red honey earlier this year. It’s nice the Times finally did an article. I believe some hives in Queens had the same thing happen.
I have to ask the husband unit…he’ll know…I think the dye for maraschino cherries may be made from coal tar as are many artificial dyes.
By the way, the styling of the New York Times article was a bit too fluffy and reductionist. Cute…but reductionist.
the red hook red bee story is hallucinatory.
What a great idea in Bed Stuy.
I wanna taste the red honey! Isn’t it Ironic how the Red Hook bees turned Red and produced Red honey? -and the bee keepers name is French for Cherry and her last name is Mayo- now thats just friggin gross!
Your so right East New York. It was so nice to wake up to a nice story like this…
The Bed Stuy story is a nice, positive development. Naturally, it is the type of article which will be overlooked in favor of other more sensational, less significant stories, like the one on bees.
Maybe she’s been stung before.
you must easily get annoyed. why is that?
Reading that bee story annoyed me.
