A question for all you non-Yankees out there.

Is honey sold in bear bottles outside of the U.S.? I couldn't figure that out for myself. --Joe Quick 13:23, 11 July 2008 (CDT)

In reply to your question on my talk page - I have not seen honey bears in China. I have seen them in the UK but they are not so common. The a common UK bottle design is a bee hive shape or pattern with rings going round the jar's surface. Derek Harkness 20:16, 11 July 2008 (CDT)
what about rooshia, where the bear is the national symbol? maybe filled with sour cream or caviar instead? Hayford Peirce 20:47, 11 July 2008 (CDT)
