HONEY, Let It BEE...
I've always known honey to be an "old-time" remedy. Growing up, I didn't see honeycombs, how they show in the movies and commercials. My family rarely used honey or sugar because we have unlimited maple sap in our back and yard.

Tomato, Say It Isn't So!
I believe vegetables have a bad reputation when we're introduced to them at the dinner table. When we're younger, we grimace our faces and protest eating them. As kids, we believe vegetables are gross, disgusting, unnecessary - you name it!
