Because it's better than whatever candy bar you'd buy in the store or granulated sugar which is easy to overdose.

  What is it that makes it better? That was the main question. I quite like a candy bar, and I quite like honey, but both seem to me like equivalent indulgences, unless the honey is added to something substantially more filling and nutritious. I wasn't able to *quickly* find anything that indicated a tablespoon of honey being different from the equivalent granulated sugar, so I just stopped buying it. It's too expensive for the little it adds to my food.

    Because it's not riddled with arbitrary additives and supposedly has micronutrients in it. Candy is overpriced for being mostly molten sugar wrapped in hard sugar.

      Ya, idk, that doesn't seem terribly compelling. Especially because honey is also basically molten sugar. If you like honey, and why wouldn't you, that's great. But it still seems to me like just a more palatable way to add candy to your cereal or tea.
