This is both great and terrible. Great because "yay bees", terrible because now they have a synthetic stand in for a natural process which will almost certainly be misused
Instead of just PLANTING SOME FUCKING FLOWERS
In a couple years we'll be saying honey "doesn't taste like it used to"
Where I live, honey is labeled with the types of flowers that the bees were feeding on. I doubt that "yeast honey" is going to replace the "chestnut honey" any time soon.
But what flowers do we let growth that will make money ?
Its simple economics. No matter how beneficial it is to the environment, people, or the economy, its bad for the economy to do anything without a direct profit motive
(god I hope the sarcasm was thick enough)
Cuno doesn't care. Cuno just wants cheap artificial honey.
