What do think about honey and swift's nest?

What do think about honey and swift's nest?
We get honey from stealing from bees and destroy bees home, and we steal swift home for food.
Do you want to eat them?

Generally in honey, there are separate frames specifically utilized for the application of honey, hives are organized units, so there's the birthing ward, living quarters, and the storage ward. The hives themselves are made in several units, the excess honey is placed in subsequently higher and higher units. Just as you don't live in your pantry, nor do the bees live in their storage units. If the population grows well, it may split, and take half of everything(honey, workers, etc.), and leave with the young queen to make another hive elsewhere. Bees are very kind, and intelligent, I could give stories on such but will stop here.

With nests, I'm not sure if it's similar to how standard bird's nests are, but there are mites that drop into the nest, the occasional poop, they aren't exactly clean. It doesn't seem to make sense that the chicks(future producers if you will) would be tossed aside inorder to harvest the nests, plus that would last very long before the animal goes extinct. I'm not familiar with the process, but just from what I've experienced with birds, bird nest soup sounds gross.

I find it easier to stick with local produce, grow my own, than eat exotic imports or play with hypothetical games I'll never try out.

I don't think like we steal from the bees or destroy their homes, thye can and do recreate their stocks on honey every season. Those are very hard working insects, th amount of the honey they produce can;t be eaten by them only.
Why such a question? Then why we take milk from the cow?
