As a child, I remember pulling the stem out of a honeysuckle, and sucking the nectar out. So I assume that was safe, since I never got sick. However, are the flowers themselves, edible?

We used to do the same as children. They are however considered to be edible. I wouldn't want to chow down on a bowl of them but they do make a nice garnish.

I remember doing that too, sucking the nectar out. I've never heard of the flowers being edible either though.

I don't think they will harm anyone eating them, since you put them in your mouth anyway, to get the nectar.
