Honey is not vomit as it does not reach the stomach. They store it in a special chamber in their esophagus.

Honey is the result of bees deepthroating nectar then spitting it out.

So like when a bird regurgitates for their young.

I have a parrot and sometimes he attempts to feed me from his crop storage, it's gross.

We're pretty sure that humans chewed food for their children before blenders and packaged baby food

Some even assume children were born before there were hospitals and doctors around, crazy take, I know.

Most mothers have no qualms about eating the goey half eaten leftovers from their baby.

Whole foods

During the breast feeding time alternatives would be a porridge, or animal milk. I assume you could grind food with a pestle and mortar but the baby would most likely die of malnourishment without it

Humans have only been farming grain for about 10 thousand years, and there's not many other foods you can grind. Ancient humans ate a lot of meat, and babies after weaning ate meat, much of it pre-chewed by mum. Things like brain wouldn't need to be chewed

I imagine it's like a grandma that doesn't cook well.
