It's HONEY. It's pure sugar that's its purpose.

You tried it, therefore you've confirmed the benefits of local honey? Please inform all scientists everywhere that their efforts are being wasted. You just need someone to try something and perceive a benefit that they fully expected before trying it. That's proof.
You can't spell bottle and don't know where the dollar sign goes. I don't trust you. I've never looked into buying bottles for honey, but I'm positive I'd be able to find them for less than $1 each.
You don't actually know that for a fact, because you can't. That's not how things work. I used to get headaches, but then I started drinking orange juice in the bathtub at 3am. Haven't had a headache since. Guess I found the cure for headaches, because I did a thing and something happened. I also found a way to get the paperboy to deliver the paper closer to my door. I leave a lamp on in the corner of a closet in the basement. That paperboy gets it within a foot of the door ever since. I'm thinking of writing a book with all my cures and solutions in it, but I have poor vision, so writing is difficult. I've been rubbing beet juice on my elbows every other Thursday since the last lunar eclipse though, so my vision should be improving any day now.
Become a beekeeper.
Now I have to know what your impressive job is.
Normal price is still very low at $7.50 but any thoughts on the chance this is a decent product at a super low price because Amazon is clearing it before it goes bad in the warehouse?
Side thought: My wife uses honey like crazy to make granola bars. We have tons of flowers in the yard thanks to her efforts also. Perhaps it is time for a new box here.
This said, this honey might be OK for cooking. Some of my commercial friends sell their 5 gallon pail for $125 to a local bakery (but they keep bees for pollination mainly, as this is where the money is right now). But for eating raw and uncooked, I would look somewhere else. I will not discount my honey for less than $225-250 per 5 gallons. I spend much time in the apiary and I rarely feed. My customers knows they are getting the real thing.
Why not buy the real raw honey and then jack the price up? I buy cheap things on SD, but I would not spare on the quality of my food. Not worth it. Again, food is your first medicine.
Oh, and one box is not a good idea. You need at least two to be able to fix issues. Be ready to spend about 20-30 minutes per hive every other week... and in Florida, it is all year long... but I won't complain as I do not have to winterize my bees and I can get two harvests per year. :-)

If you can do that I'll gladly read it! So would many others here. In fact I would LOVE to see your thoughts proven right in a study because I would like to believe in those benefits. I'm not being sarcastic or snarky here. It would elevate this age old conversation.
However, replies like the one above just kind of reinforce that you're operating on an emotion because you really just want to believe in a concept that makes you feel good. A nice thought but not a fact.

People trying to save the internet as an information sharing tool. Doing our best to fight butt hurt opinions stated as fact.
The post you reference was referencing the fact that the guy I was replying to didn't bother to answer a simple question. Maybe read a bit before spouting off.
The internet is only an information tool if used correctly. Of course it is not the only tool and the only one that seems butt hurt here is you.
Now I have heard it all. Run along with your ignorance please.

You can't claim for a FACT that the honey is what caused an improvement in your case. You ate local honey and felt better. Great! Nothing shows that you felt better BECAUSE of the honey. Nothing shows that any effect you experienced due to honey would've been any different with any other honey. Therefore, NOTHING says the honey did anything for you, or for anyone else. You can't claim the honey worked for you as a fact, because facts need to be proven by actual evidence, of which you have none, other than anecdotal, which is nothing in terms of proving your claim. I'll try another example to help your simple mind try to grasp this concept.
I had horrible leg pain for 30 years. One day, I moved to the desert and started praying to Bleepgoop, the goddess of legs and feet. The next day, my leg pain was gone! Bleepgoop cured my leg pain through my prayers!
Doesn't that sound stupid?

"Placebo effect" refers to when someone in a LABORATORY STUDY, A CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT, feels better, simply because they believed they were being given a medication that would help them, DESPITE THEM ACTUALLY NOT RECEIVING THAT MEDICATION. Therefore, that can't be used as evidence that the medicine works, since they weren't given any actual medicine. So, their improvement is either imagined, or DUE TO SOME OTHER FACTORS. This is a very simplified explanation as to why your experiment involving no controls, no lab, no guidelines, no testing, no actual scientific data, no medical professionals, etc. can't possibly prove anything. Even if, in your case, the honey was 100% responsible for making your condition better, there are no FACTS to support it, and you can't possibly prove your claim, EVER, NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY OR DO. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO CLAIM FOR A FACT THAT THE HONEY DID ANYTHING. Sorry, but that's how facts and science work.

I said it is a FACT IT HELPED ME. Maybe I should type it slower for you? Maybe if I type in colors you will be able to comprehend what I wrote?
Run along dude. You can keep trying but you will still be wrong.

Ironic that someone who doesn't understand what a fact is would call someone else idiotic. Your feelings about your allergies can't be a fact. Your decision to attribute your improved health to honey can't be a fact. Get a dictionary and have someone read it to you. Ask your doctor. Ask a child. Ask anyone who isn't you. Facts are facts, and the only fact you've presented is that you don't understand what a fact is.

Now, if we get to antifungal and bactericide properties (depending on the type of honey), then this is another story. Peace out guys.
