I made a recipe and in the marinade there is honey. I cooked the meat with it and my 8-month-old son ate 5 bites of this meat. I'm worried about his health.

Symptoms of botulism from ingesting honey can occur within the first few days but may also appear later. It is recommended to monitor the child's health for at least 4 weeks. If constipation or weakness develops, seek immediate medical attention. It is important to avoid giving honey to children under one year old to prevent the risk of botulism.
