Historical accounts of mad honey go as far back as the 6th century BCE. Ancient Greek mythology suggests that the sweet substance was used in fortune-telling. In another account, a Greek historian wrote about a Greek army passing through Turkey in 401 BCE. After eating the local wild honey, the soldiers experienced severe discomfort and were forced to stop for a few days to recover. In 65 BCE, a king named Mithridates came up with a clever plan to trick the Roman army that was pursuing him. His army left behind honeycombs of mad honey for the Roman soldiers to find. After the Romans ate them and fell ill, Mithridates’ army then returned and destroyed the weakened Roman force.
