This is borne out by the fact that honey production in 1951 hit an all-time high of 249,053, 000 pounds.1 Honey is so popu ar as a food now that we've ev en got a national "Honey for Breakfast Week." ' The history of honey is as fas cinating as that of the flowers from which nectar is drawn by the bees who make the honey. Bees from one hive may visit a quarter-million flowers in one day searching for nectar; it takes about 37,000 loads of nectar to make one pound of honey. Down through history, honey has been used as a beverage, as medicine, as a dowry and even as a ritual offering to the sun. Many kinds of honey are pro duced in this country, varying according to the horticulture cf various regions. There is honey from clover, which grows in practically every section of the United States, and honey from orange blossoms and sage. There is tupelo honey from the tupelo trees which grow in Florida and other parts of the South. There is honey from chinkapin, mes quite, basswood, horsemint and alfalfa, to name some moie. There also is buckwheat honey from the midwest and far west which is used mainly for baking and commercial candy , produc tion. Popular demand is divided be tween a blend of sage-orange blossom-clover and straight clov er honey, according to an A & P food store expert, one of . 'the nation's leading retailer distrib utors of the sweet. Most of the orange blossom honey comes from California. Clover honey is especially abundant in New York state and also is widely produced else where. Sage honey comes from southern California. Historically, honey goes back virtually to the beginning of time. The Bible refers to Pales tine as a land flowing with milk and.honsy and tells how Jacob, when he sent his son to Egypt, had him .take a gift of honey to the ruler of that land. Ancient Egyptians used honey to pay their taxes and the Mqhamme dans revered the sweet as a miraculous medicine. The in habitants of Peru offered the sweet in' their rites to the sun and prospective bridegrooms in the Middle East used it as a dowry. In Rome it was a serious breach of etiquette not to offer honey to a guest. Honey was made into a bev erage in India and those who drank it believed they would gain strength, wisdom, happi ness and other admirable traits. In Poland and Silesia, farmers tied honey-dipped strings around their fruit trees to insure a good crop. At funerals in Egypt, Mor occo, Rome and the Hindu lands, containers of honey were placed in tombs both as food for the dead and as omens of good. Ancient stories referred to honey as "nectar of the gods." Aristotle, the Greek philosopher, called it "dew distilled from the stars and the rainbow." The Ro man poet Virgil wrote in verse of "heaven-born honey." They referred only to honey's delicious flavor. Since . their time, science has proven that honey also has nutritional value. It contains many minerals and has an abundant supply of vita mins B and C. Moreover, since about 80 per cent of its composi tion is sugars, it far surpasses most other foods as a source of energy. Honey also is the only manufactured sweet available in commercial quantities.
