It really is possible to have too much of a good thing.

Sometimes there are serious hits, like the now-iconic tomato-feta pasta recipe, as well as some disastrous misses.
But every now and then one trend will come along and it will cause a little bit of chaos. And not the good kind.

How snacking on frozen honey became a thing might be unknown, but dieticians and other experts have issued a warning and are seriously concerned.
There is approximately 82g of sugar in 100g of honey and apparently, one in three people suffer from a condition called dietary fructose intolerance.

Dietary fructose intolerance is a result of the cells in your intestines not being able to absorb fruit sugars, aka fructose, as they should and this leads to gastrointestinal distress.
That's why eating copious amounts of honey could lead to stomach pain and a runny tummy.
Honey is great, but having it in small amounts to sweeten is really a healthy relationship with food, and using it to get a lot of followers and a lot of attention and having it in excess amounts is crazy.

There is major concern within many health and medical communities that these types of TikTok trends are causing more harm than good as people want to jump on while it's hot, without considering the effects it could have on their bodies.
Humans are not created equally and just as one person might be allergic to peanuts, another might not be. Sometimes these trends could end horribly.

I worry about kids going on TikTok to get their information and then following the latest trend and not tuning in to their own, internal stomach. If you try this trend once in a while and you get a stomach ache – just because everyone else is doing it — be independent and you don’t have to do it, either.
Seems like our parents were right when they told us not to play with our food.
