B Correct answer
Explanation

Honey is the only natural food that never spoils due to its unique chemical properties: very low moisture content (around 17%), acidic pH (3-4.5), and enzymes that produce hydrogen peroxide. These conditions create an environment where bacteria and microorganisms cannot survive. Archaeologists have found pots of honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that are over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible. Ghee can last for years but not indefinitely, while butter and cheese definitely spoil.
