The Mellified Man was a legendary medicinal substance created by steeping a human cadaver in honey eaten by people in China hundreds of years ago.
There are rumors that this practice might still go on.
The process of Mellification would often begin before death.
The person that was going to be Mellified, would either volunteer or be forced to eat nothing but honey before their death.
This diet was of course fatal.
The body then would be placed in a coffin filled with honey.
It would then be left for 100 years.
The body and the honey would melt down and mesh together in a sweet substance, which would then be sold as a health food in street markets.
