Is bee pollen bee "spit?" My daughters want to know...?

No, pollen comes from flowers, and it is the male fertilizing portion of a plant. (aka "plant sperm) Bees help spread it from flower to flower because it sticks to hairs on their bodies.



Bee HONEY, on the other hand, is partially digested flower nectar that is regurgitated . (aka "bee vomit")



But it's very tasty, as most of us would agree!



You might not want to tell your kids... might gross them out!

Pollen comes from flowers. The wax is made in a bee's body. Royal jelly is a very nutritious and healing food that is made in the bee's body as well.
