For some vegans, this extends to honey, because it is produced from the labor of bees. But what about the work bees do for avocado trees? less Vegans eschew not only products made from animals, such as bacon and leather, but also products made by animals - the most obvious examples being milk and butter.

Honey Bee Market in Mexicantown welcomes Ford to the neighborhood
Susan Selasky Detroit Free Press Published 10:36 p.m. UTC Jun 14, 2018 Several years ago, Ken Koehler knew that changes were coming to Mexicantown in Detroit when he started seeing more and more people on bicycles riding up and down Bagley. The co-owner of Honey Bee Market at 16th Street and Bagley "never imagined" the biggest change maker would be Ford. “It’s great that Ford is making its presence in the city — the Motor City," Koehler said Wednesday of news the automaker had purchased the long-vacant Michigan Central Station in neighboring Corktown. The station's former owners, the Moroun family, announced the sale Monday. From Honey Bee's parking lot, the Michigan Central Station is in nearly full view. Koehler, who with his wife Tammy (Tomasita) Alfaro-Koehler owns the market, added that he couldn’t be more excited and thinks Ford's buying the train station will have … [Read more...] about Honey Bee Market in Mexicantown welcomes Ford to the neighborhood

Vietnamese man recovers from critical condition from 250 honey bee stings
A man in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta region is recovering from internal organ failure brought on by hundreds of bee stings. On April 17, T.V.T., a Hau Giang Province resident, was attacked by a swarm of bees alongside a local road after approaching their hive in an attempt to collect honey. They chased the 53-year-old until he arrived at his house, where family members helped drive the swarm away. T. was immediately taken to nearby Hoan My Cuu Long Hospital in neighboring Can Tho City. By the time he arrived at the hospital, he had been verging on unconsciousness with slow and faint respiration. Doctors used intubation, the process of placing a plastic tube into the windpipe to ease air flow, to improve the patient's breathing, but T.’s condition continued to worsen as his blood pressure became immeasurable and his heart rhythm continued to slow. The situation began to improve after doctors performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation – an emergency procedure that aims to … [Read more...] about Vietnamese man recovers from critical condition from 250 honey bee stings
