[quote=Baratang]Have you ever been to a supermarket, bought a plastic container of 500g of honey and as you are paying for it at close to kshs 400 your mouth is already watering seriously, waririkana handù hau!!
Once you get home, and get your first slice of broadway and smeer the sweet honey, it is all yuk!! You realise that the content of the plastic container that you bought from the supermarket looks like honey, but does not taste like honey..

This has happened to me twice from "honey" from different supermarkets.

It seems this tabia is not about to end starting from honey from Kibwezi along Mombasa road, Mwingi along Garissa road where doctoring of honey is done and even the Kenyans themselves making honey which is all different from the one made by genuine bees except the colour.

Now Maasais have joined in, in the lucrative business....Eish!!!

@Willing2learn, Yours may not be a genuine honey, because a kilo of the genuine honey is retailing for kshs 800 and in some places, it is 1k.:-( :-(
Are you selling blackstrap molasses mixed with little amount of honey?[-x [-x :-(

Nobody is kidding. Is there anything unusual about bees eating honey.:-)

@baratang...there is nothing unusual about bees eating the honey, but there is something unusual about a swarm of bees eating the honey.

Eish!!!Kwani those bees in the swarm are not bees? Bees are bees bwana. NKT!!!

Relax chief. I have some limited knowledge of bees and I just wanted to collect you on the usage of the word swarm. It is not the swarm of bees that ate the honey although it is still bees which ate it.:-)
