yeah, even my father in law, a farmer, argued with me honey isn't animal product because it's made by bees, i guess it's similar to the meaning of "alcohol", for normal people it's an alcoholic drink, mainly hard liqor, for a chemist it's everything with a Carbon connected OH group, not only ethanol or methanol, but also menthol, sorbitol or even cholesterol
