Jumble Spoiler – 07/14/21

Visual Description:  The sting of exotic imports!

HNETT  =  TENTH,  LXIPE  =  PIXEL,  SOEBWT  =  BESTOW,  POYRTH  =  TROPHY   —   Giving us:  TEIEBTWROH

Clue/Question:  They bought the very expensive Manuka honey and hoped the honey would – – –

Answer:  “BEE“ WORTH IT

(Sweet!  All you need is the proper buzz, and people will swarm like crazy, to embrace the latest fad!  Today, It’s honey from Down Under!  I think some Aussies and Kiwis are laughing all the way to the bank!  If you’re into the caché of the day, then go ahead and spend the cash.  All honey is better for you than refined sugar, but you’re probably better off sticking with a locally sourced honey, for your tea and your sore throats.  No need to busy yourself combing through the colony, looking for the current organic golden child.

Nice cartoon of a trendy health food store.  The wife seems to be fully in control, while the husband embraces his uber-nerd.  LOL!  The jar looks just like what I looked up!  Bee well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
