honey is not cruelty free, vegan or plant based. Keep in mind honey is the vomit bees produce to feed their larvae and it takes 1 bee an entire lifetime to produce 1 teaspoon of honey. If bees die off most plants and animals that rely on them will begin to die off withing 5 yrs. If humans disappear all other life will flourish, that's how more significant bees are to the planet then humans. Compassion is easy, convenience and lack of discipline and information is why people don't choose compassion more. There are plenty of great alternatives like agave, syrup (rice, barley, maple, coconut, etc) Honee made from apples, dates, molasses, brown sugar, etc https://www.instagram.com/p/CVxYnjQLsHs/?utm_medium=tumblr
