Its not 1 to 1.

Based on that, honey is denser so you need less of it. And while it is refined, it is less refined than sugar

Except oir brains aren't wired to consume kess if something. Sugar is great if you are an animal or a hunter gather bevause it is calorie rich while taking little effort to harvest (once you fogure out how to deal with the bees). Calorie dense is great when you dont know ehen your next meal is coming, but in out modern society it means health problems.

And i love honey, but your body doesn't see any difference between a spoonful of honey, molasses, agave, maple syrup, or high fructose corn syrup. They are all just a concentrated dose of sugar.
