If you can find me this:
I will give you 1 meeeeeeeeellion VV's when we get them back and working. Oh, and I'll pay you real money for whatever it costs + shipping to Florida.
Alternatively, if anyone knows where I can order it online that'll work too.. but I haven't had any luck. (It was originally purchased at Ample Hamper in England.. somewhere, by my ex-roomie.)

I saw that, those are like mini sampler jars of their different kinds of honey. And I wasn't able to find any sides that specifically state that they have the 'Pure English' honey like on that jar - and most of the sites suck and don't have images. ><

I could probably get it for you, but it would be expensive as shit to send it. Probably end up costing you like 30 dollars or so, all included.

Kyoukan said she can get it, if that doesn't work out I'll let you know.

Do that, hope kyo works out coz 30 bucks for a jar of honey sure seems a bit excessive.
Why is it you want it anyway?

My mother in law is coming over (from the UK) in another month or so; if you haven't got any by then, send me an IM and I will have her get some. It would work out well since I live in Florida, too.

Try it, and you will see the light.
(Best honey we've ever had... and I can't find anything like it at stores around here other than 'organic' honey which is close, but not exactly the same.)

Of course they do. Your country still worships the Queen of England and may as well still be part of the British Empire!
BTW, why aren't there any english EQers? We have plenty of euros on this board but is there anyone from england? Are they behind the times with the net?

Azuth (if you remember him, I forget the name of that enchanter that he made) is from B'ham. Well, he went to university there. I can't remember where he actually came from....
I was raised there and speak with an accent, but was born in Long Beach. I know "The Bog" over on FoH boards is a Brit, but that is it. Any quiet Brits feel free to jump out of the woodwork and reply now!

Berelain, that was the name! Yeah, I already mentioned him three posts up. He will forever be Azuth to me since we started leveling in CB at the same time in '99! Voro used to say that we would talk funny in group chat

For anyone who cares, honey is different colored and tasting depending on where it is from. Different flowers can cause a honey to be a different color so it is certainly possible to have honey taste different if it comes from a different country. I personally buy mine in bulk from the local natural foods co-op. Natural unpasteurized honey tastes a lot different than that cooked down crap sold in stores.

I really like the cooked down crap sold in stores so I would be interested to taste unpasteurized honey to see the difference.
