It’s up to you! About half the people who enjoy honeycomb say they eat the wax and the other half says they chew it until all the honey flavor is gone and then spit it out – they think of the wax as a honey-flavored chewing gum.
Why is honeycomb more expensive than honey?
It takes bees 8 times as much effort to produce honeycomb as it does to produce just the raw honey. It’s also a lot more work for the beekeeper to remove it from the hive and then to set the hive up again for the bees to build new honeycomb.
Honeycomb is sometimes known by its French name: “rayon de miel”.
