    Corn syrup will give you a similar result.
    I got the honey for about two dollars a pound, which is why I used the kind that I did (around here, that's a steal for honey). Menards had it on sale. Bought as much as the wife would let me get away with. She's still finding stashes of it hidden throughout the apartment.

    I can quit any time I want. Honest.
