Raw, pure honey (aka liquid gold) is only natural food on earth that will not spoil (unless contaminated). It also does not freeze. If you store it at temperatures of -4F and below, it will eventually solidify and appear frozen solid, but some component of the honey will continue to flow, very slowly.
Sadly raw pure honey is not easily available. Much of the honey that you find in stores is pasteurized, and then diluted with corn syrup, sugar and other additives.
So if your honey has an expiration date...its probably not pure honey.
