Anyone ever get a slightly sore scratchy throat sensation from eating honey?
I love honey but if I eat it when it on top of yogurt, with cheese or on the side of a food it seems to gives me a scratchy tickling soreness for a good hour or two after. This doesn’t happen if the honey is mixed into something well like milk/choc milk, smoothie, ice cream, tea or anything cooked. Only happens if it’s still in its natural state sort on over or along side the food. I’m assuming it’s the honey itself hitting the throat and reacting in some way but unsure why. I’m guessing it’s not an allergy as I get no other symptoms, if there a test I can check for a honey allergy? the more I have the worse it is for example 50 grams on some yogurt would be pretty uncomfortable for a couple of hours compared to a straight teaspoon might be irritating for 10 mins and pass.
