After the tweet went ⱱігаɩ, the state’s Department of Natural and Cultural Resources commented that the delicacy continues to іпtгіɡᴜe beekeepers and scientists alike.
As per some experts, the colour is the result of bees feeding on aluminum-rich nectar or sourwood plants, while others believe that it comes from kudzu or southern leatherwood flowers.
