A small, sweet P.E.I. innovation is being blasted into space. Island Abbey Foods says its Honibe Honey Drop is going up to the International Space Station as part of the official Canadian Space Agency Snacks for Space competition. The drop was one of a select few chosen from over 150 submissions to go into space as a novel food product and will provide station crew with an alternative to liquid honey. The drop is an individual serving of 100 per cent pure dried honey without any additives. John Rowe, president of Island Abbey, says the station crew will be able to enjoy a nutritious food without making a sticky mess.
