What you mean. I have one. Is pretty common. Is OP American?
I grew up in America and I saw them often enough. They must have grown up in Sucksville.
Yeah, but just look at those black levels.
I have a honey pot with one of those that somebody gave me as a gift.
I tried to use it one time to be fancy when I made biscuits, and put it in the middle of the table during dinner. At first people tried to use it, but it was such a fucking pain in the ass, eventually they just stopped trying to be nice about it used a spoon to get the honey bc wtf is the point?
Well it does keep the honey not dripping if rotated, and works nicely if the honey is applied to hot water (as if you don’t, the honey will never leave those stripey grooves).
All of this can be said about a spoon too, though.
Speak for yourself there’s one within 3m of me right now
Until reading the comments, I didn’t know people actually owned these. I thought it was supposed to look like the stripes of a bee on a stick as a gimmick to sell. But according to the comments, it’s designed that way so you can twirl it if your honey container is far away from where you want to spread the honey to keep from dripping everywhere.
I’ve never seen one of these in real life, whether at home or traveling. I’ve been to almost all 50 states and 10 other countries.

As opposed to moving the container or what you want the honey on to be closer together.
I have seen these before, but I’ve never seen them for anything other than honey. No one has a gravy twirler or a pancake syrup twirler.
Bahaha. I guess I grew up with these in Utah and thought nothing of it it. Even made a couple in high school shop class.
The beehive state. It figures.
I’ve never heard that association before.
It’s literally on their highway signs and their capitol building
I was looking for the word “beehive” and found myself thorougly flummoxed. After re-reviewing I understand better. Thank you.
Check out this fucking neanderthal, doesn’t even have a Syrup Schlorper.
Grew up beekeeper, did not have one of these.
Anyone with a decent honey set up has these.
I just pour the entire jar. I use honey to make mead
That IS a decent set up.
I should save this comments section for when I need examples of why social media should be banned. A ton of people being dicks to each other over whether they use a honey dripper or a teaspoon.
Oh it’s called a honey dripper? This guy called it a syrup schlorper.
These are the same people that got their knickers in a twist about microwaving water for tea. Logic is not found in these types, only vibes.
I know what you mean but also there is a viseral vibe around microwaving water in particular that feels very caveman coded in the weirdest way.
A microwave oven’s function is literally to heat water in any food item.
I’m aware but there’s this weird visceral unga bunga energy to it. It’d be like using a diesel generator to farm crypto it just feels fucking weird.
I think you got that backwards - the caveman is the one scared of the microwave and its spooky woo-woo magic that damages the water’s aura
Seen them, used them, currently own one!
Somehow ended up with one of these in my house as a kid. Nobody had bought it, my parents were avowed agaisnt them because they find them hard to use… must have been a gift from the honey fairy. Anyway, I insisted on actually trying to use it one time.
It’s not useful. It doesn’t do anything that a spoon doesn’t do.
You might argue that it spreads the honey in cute little criss cross patterns but honey is either so runny that it all pools together on the toast/cake it’s applied to, or is so viscuous that it doesn’t do any of that stuff and needs to be spread with a knife.
Honeydippers might be a medieval “emperor’s new clothes” style hoax.
From other comments, I think it’s specifically for getting runny honey into tea. A spoon can do that and a lot more, but doesn’t look so cool and specialized. I use a knife for applying to bread.
We have one. A small one that came with this little countertop ceramic honey pot we found at a pottery shop. We actually tried using it, but the ants got to the literal honey pot very quickly.
Yeah I just summon the upside down bear
I own two of them. They are great for honey.
I’m guessing the people who don’t use them aren’t into honey. Like, maybe they have a little honey bear that’s crusty in the back of their pantry.
Lmao the little crusty honey bear. Been there, microwave it for like 8 seconds.
Or they really know their honey and put it in a honey dispenser instead of using this messy torture device.
does that work well with real honey that will eventually crystalize tho? (not a honey expert but it seems like the obvious advantage to a honey dipper)
No. I had one and tossed it when it went solid. Ordinary jar for the win.
I got one last week when I got honey as a gift. Don’t know what it’s good for though 😂
