The entire world has been left without honey after its entire supply was consumed in a variety of hot drinks by a woman with a cold.

Emma Hickman, 29, has single-handedly exhausted the global supply of honey after using all of it to soothe her sore throat.

‘It started as a spoonful of honey in a cup of tea or with a squeeze of lemon, then it started to get out of hand. Before I knew it I was drinking cups of pure warm honey,’ she told us.

The honey shortage could have a severe consequence for the rest of the planet as bees could starve, leading to the destruction of the entire global ecosystem.

Winnie The Pooh will also be left without anything to get his hand stuck in unless his relationship with Piglet becomes more obscene than previously imaginable.
