It wasn't a bee hive. It was a tree, cave, clay pot on its side. And they were like the bears. they were after the grubs (larva) and bees. The honey turned out to be a bonus.
When John Corner was in Kenya with Care Canada setting up and promoting sustainable beekeeping rather than being honey robbers. They were after the brood to eat as much as they were the honey. The honey they would sell.

Stop it apis, your making iddee hungry. :t3816:
-
Thanks Apis. I went from laughing and thinking, "Yum" to "ewwwwwwww!" in the seconds it took to read your post. lol
-
Gave me a chuckle that Perry posts a Funny, and we get a classroom lecture from Apis :D

Hey, fried drone larva in olive oil. Iff'en you ain't tried it, don't knock it.
-
GAG!
-
Well, he's knocking it, so I guess he's tried it. :laugh:
I haven't, so I'm not knocking it

Wife said they served Bee Larvae in one of the oversees places she went for desert.. no clue how it was prepared, but it had chocolate drizzled on it... She was not amused.. Couldnt figure out why they would do that to good chocolate....
-
"Couldnt figure out why they would do that to good chocolate...."
Hahahha :D I'll have to side with wife on this one.. :D
I have to say tho, that many apitherapist are taught to not waste any of the bee. Sting your achy elbow put fresh dead bee in your salad. Honeybees are considered a perfect protein ;)
-
Chocolate makes everything better!
-
So does bacon ;)

hmmmm, well, i guess i am with scott, no honeybee larvae in my chocolate AND protein or not..... no fresh dead bee in my salad or anything else, had enough of the butt ends of a honeybee in various places........ probably had enough or get enough 'protein' from that............ :D :D :D
-
"Probably had enough or get enough 'protein' from that"
Now you went and did it! I'm going to have to investigate if there is any protein type components in venom... :D
-
Most allergys are because of the way the body reacts to the protein in the way it trys to break it down. People are more likely to have a reaction to foods that are a protein. Nuts, milk, cheese, pollen, bee stings.
-
I felt the same way about snails. Who thought they would taste good? ew.
-
How about mixed in with your honey? I have witnessed frames being uncapped where queen excluders were not used with automatic uncappers. the blades go over the tops of the worker cells, but the drone cells get their caps ripped off and depending on their stage of development can get spun out of the cell with the honey.
-
When I harvested my first honey a couple years ago, I was doing crush and strain. A couple of my jars of honey had a little bit of drone brood fluid in it. It didn't filter out like I thought it would. Later when I opened the jar to test it, it had a bad pungeunt smell. Didn't like it and tossed it. It was only about 3 jars so it wasn't a great loss but a good learning lesson.
-

LOL no doubt!!
-
"had enough of the butt ends of a honeybee in various places."
" LOL no doubt!!"
right on scott, all of us have.........hmmm, i think jack can tell some pretty good stories about the various places and related activities.........oh and you too?!.......... :D
"Now you went and did it! I'm going to have to investigate if there is any protein type components in venom... :D"
jen there is..............just google it......... ;)
protein in bee venom (http://lmgtfy.com/?q=protein+in+bee+venom)
-
I think I'll gather up some dead bees and put them on the salad at Thanksgiving.... I'll let you know how that turns out. Wrong time of year for drone larva! Darn it.

I KNEW IT!!! :eusa_clap: The bees never stop amazing me with their abilities to support and heal us!! ;D
-
I'm confused ??? I go to the bee yard feeling good, working bees, warm sunny day, smell of the outdoors, ect. Then the bees decide they don't like me and i get several hits and get some swelling and some throbbing and don't feel real good, But, with the bee venom i have in my body that the bees gave me 8) the swelling over my eye, my jaw, and ear, starts going away in just two or three days. Thank you little bees for the healing venom you gave me. :yes: Hmmm, something doesn't seem right about this :eusa_doh: Maybe riverbee, jen, B12, or Gypsy can figure it out???? :laugh: Jack
-
Although the sting smarts a bit, I find it eliminates my arthritic pain for a few days.
-
Hey Bee! I think there is more protein when the bees are freshly dead, not ones that have been laying in front of the hive for weeks ;)
Apitherapist are taught... sting the knee, eat the bee ;) 8)

My chickens get all the dead ones in front of the hives so I need to come up with a new plan!
-
My lizards get my fresh dead bees, and live bees! Probably three squares a day... ;) 8) Oh! and I have a huge preying mantis that gets a snack every day :D

My eggs taste like honey! ;D
-
Lol ~ I wonder what my lizard would taste like? :D
-
Lizards are nice white meat, similar to catfish, but not as oily. Very good eating.
Monitors and 'gators have a lot more meat than anoles, tho. :yes: ;D
-
:eusa_think: Sooo, Iddee, how do you cook a 6 inch lizard ??? or maybe I don't want to know that...
-
I don't know. The lizards I have cooked were 6 foot or more.
-
My eggs taste like honey! ;D
Bee Commander---did you really intend to say what you said?
:o :-\ :-X
-
LOL!!
a 6 inch lizard.. could it be worse than frog legs? Id gut it, and skin it and throw the whole thing in the deep fat fryer, breaded of course! Softens/cooks the bones then you eat it like a smelt or a french fry!
;D
-
Blech to all of you! :laugh:
-
Sorry Perry for hijacking your humorous post. Well truth be told not really.
-
HIJACK?? I think it's getting funnier with each post. All these appetizing ideas probably made Perry eat twice as much at the fest today.
-
Scott, Wait... If breading and deep frying it softens the bones... thinking :eusa_think:.... Why bother gutting and skinning it! The whole lizard body would soften up with a crispy chicken fried coating on the outside, plenty of salt and pepper and a BEER. I would eat one ;)
But Stay Far Far Away From My Lizard Scott, you have to find your own... ;)
Sorry Perry, I can feel you turning green clean over here in Cali :D
-
I was born and raised in the deep South---everything is good if it's deep fried! :)
-

Oh how I agree with the above. We, in West Texas, will eat it if it can be fried. We like it even better, if we can make some gravy along the way.
-
Jane will not allow a deep fryer in the house. Whenever I mention it, she it quickly points to someone with an over-sized derriere and asks me if that's what I want to be looking at (even in the mirror). :D
-
:D :D :D I would LOVE for someone to teach me how to cook like Jane
-

Bee Commander---did you really intend to say what you said?
:o :-\ :-X
I reckon :yes:
-
Jen;
Why bother gutting and skinning it!
Well, because lizards poop, and even deep fried I am pretty sure that wouldnt be good! :laugh:
-
Why not? You've eaten sardines, haven't you?
-
Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
-
Hey perry, haven't you heard the saying? YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. :laugh: :laugh: My wife calls me SWEETIE and HONEY. :yes: Jack
-
You went there Jack... Now tell us the other names she calls you!
-
NO, NO, NO. You can't print words like that on this forum. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
-
OH! I Remember Now! This is what beekeepers do when bee season is over... :D
-
ROFL

"Jane will not allow a deep fryer in the house. Whenever I mention it, she it quickly points to someone with an over-sized derriere and asks me if that's what I want to be looking at (even in the mirror). :D"
hmmm, no household is complete without a deep fryer, or some sort of something you fry in and not to mention an over-sized derriere........... :D :D :D
not saying i have one of those.........oh i do have a few of somethings to fry in............ :laugh:
jack can say all he wants about the names his wife calls him, his wife doesn't read the forum and jack just might humor the rest of us....... :D
a 6 inch lizard? feed it to your pet snake.......... :D and then fry up and eat the snake ........... :D OR as southerners do figure out if it tastes good deep fried with something on it like CHOCOLATE AND PECANS............ :D
LOL........i think iddee was talking about a 6 FOOT lizard.........?............. :D
irregardless i think i would pass on 'gourmet lizard'...... ;D
and btw jen, yes it's what we do when the season is over.......... :D

Just cause you can deep fry something doesn't mean you should....

Wait.... deep fried BUTTER??? I can honestly say I have never tried that one.
-

-

(lol, most often not!)......... :D :D :D

Grandad said growing up in Licking, Mo. they were so poor that they ate everything. He would laugh and say, he didn't care much for skunk, that it was to stringy. :eusa_think: Jack
