it's just the sugar hardening. put the jar in a small pot of hot water. it'll melt again. yummy vomit.

It will go bad if you increase the water content in it, the bees allow the nectar to dry out until it has a low water content, that and they add enzymes that help cure the honey.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's because honey, as a sugar, is hygroscopic, but sure, let's go with this shower thought, because who doesn't want a nice dollop of bee vomit over their pancakes? ;)

There was a study recently that showed that honey is such a powerful desiccant that it sucks the water out of bacteria's cells, killing the bacterium. That's why in a closed container it never spoils; all the things that could rot it are dead.
