@401matthall@mastodon.xyz @Gargron@mastodon.social @cmconseils@mastodon.social My grandparents used one, and yes they kept fresh honey from a local beekeeper. But yeah, commercial honey killed the charm with plastic bottles. Go check out your local farmers market, you can usually find fresh honey and utensils there.

This might sound snotty or obtuse, I don't mean it to, I understand the appeal of fresh honey (it's my preference) but I still can't quite grok the utensils... What's the advantage of the wand over say... A spoon or just pouring from the jar and wiping the lip of the jar when finished?

I feel like I'm genuinely missing something.

@401matthall@mastodon.xyz @FeloniousPunk@beige.party @cmconseils@mastodon.social Why have a cake fork when there's the dinner fork, or the table spoon when there's the tea spoon--part tradition, part adaptation. This particular utsensil is good at keeping the honey from dripping off while you're transferring it to your mug.

Sure, I understand the concepts of traditional tools/utensils etc. I don't especially adapt to them. It's more the utility that I was curious about.

Thanks for the reply!
