Honeybees

Honeybees are the unsung heros or heroines of our food industry. For every three bites you eat, one of those bites needed a honeybee to pollinate it.

You may have heard that over the last few year, the world's honeybee population has been suffering from an unknown disease, Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). This disease should be of great concern because it has and will impact our food and cosmetic industries. A world without honeybess will be bleak and tasteless, even Haagen-Dazs thinks so.
