By David Warren, The Catholic Thing - Honey is a good thing, in its place. Ask any bee. He might disagree with the use of it in my morning coffee, but not in principle. It exists to be used, like everything I have seen and thought about. It might also be abused... If one has ever drowned in a vat of honey – and frankly, gentle reader, I never have – one might glimpse its dark side. The closest I’ve come is in eating Greek baklava, or Bengali jalebi.
