I think most people already know that it is someone who refuses to eat food that either comes from an animal or is an animal. And that includes honey. Now, I am not a vegan. Though I was a vegetarian for two years, however, that was in the past. So, I have no experience with not eating honey.
However, it seems there is a lot of debate about honey among vegans. Vegans believe honey harvesting is harmful for bees. So that is why many beekeepers are trying to clear up everything for vegans and why they should eat honey albeit locally sourced.
