Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life

  Really, my dad raised bees and we had them all the time. I thought everyone did.

  I got one last week when I got honey as a gift. Don’t know what it’s good for though 😂

  Went to a wedding shower that was nature themed awhile back and the attendance prize was a small jar of local honey with one of these attached. I’ve never used one so I am curious to give it a try.

  I see this design on earwax cleaners. I think the idea is to be useful for retrieving a thick, viscous substance from a tight place. Rather than scooping it, it provides a space designed for the stuff to “get stuck in” the cracks.

  Given honey appears in various consistencies, I can see how that would be useful; maybe more for the beekeepers than the consumer.

  I’m a ~4yr amateur apiarist (US based, but not one of the dumb ones… depending). These are actually great for serving our raw honey. It pours off perfectly if you spin it.

  I’ve got a couple variations in a drawer. I don’t use a lot of honey so I don’t use them a lot.

  I’ve seen them. No advantage over using a spoon or even a knive as long as there’s no cross contamination.

  I have used it but I don’t have one since I usually crystalise all my honey anyway. Mostly just put it in tea and crystalised is so much easier.
