How long does honey last after it is opened and left at room temperature?

Honey is a natural food that has antibacterial and antifungal properties. It can last indefinitely if stored properly. However, honey that is left at room temperature may darken in colour, crystallize, or ferment over time. These changes do not affect the safety of honey, but they may affect its flavour and texture.

Here are some tips for storing honey to extend its shelf life:

* Store honey in a cool, dark place.

* Keep the honey container tightly sealed to prevent it from absorbing moisture from the air.

* If honey becomes crystallized, heat it gently in a microwave or double boiler until it melts back to a liquid. Avoid overheating, as this can damage the honey.

With proper storage, honey can last for many years without spoiling.
