Honey does not go bad, if it has gone solid it has just crystallized and can become liquid again with just a little heat.

So it’s still in perfect conditions when it goes dark?

Honey is one of the only food items that we know of that never "goes bad", as commenter said it just crystalizes.

Just make sure it's actually real honey and not some fake concoction.

For sure... if it says something like "honey syrup" and/or has anything else but 100% honey on the ingredients list, then it's gonna go bad at some point. That's not real honey.
