ELI5: why is it things like honey can never go bad?
gpt
Bacteria grows in places with moisture. Honey has barely any moisture at all. Without bacteria, it will stay safe.  Honey is also acidic, bacteria doesn't like acidic things. The bees also add an enzyme to it that produces hydrogen peroxide. This has antibacterial properties. These 3 things keep it from spoiling.
