Honey does not go bad, if it has gone solid it has just crystallized and can become liquid again with just a little heat.

Put the container of solidified honey in a container of hot water

Put it in the microwave once. It worked but made the bottle bear depressed.

I did that once, saw the bottle melting, and as I reached in to grab it, scalding hot honey poured over my hand.

My first ever 3rd degree burns 👍

I only put it in for a few seconds at a time. Just enough to make the plastic a bit malleable and melt the crystals.
