Will honey go bad if it is left for a long time?

Honey may go bad if it is kept for a long time, but the shelf life of honey is very long, usually 18 months or 2 years. As long as it is preserved, it will not deteriorate in most cases.

Honey is the nectar or secretion of plants collected by bees, which is fully brewed. The water content is less than 20%, and it also contains acidic substances and high-concentration sugar substances. Usually it only needs to be sealed and stored in a dry, ventilated, cool and direct sunlight place.
