Sorry to be so extreme, but just trying a taste of it to most animals is extremely toxic and in most cases cause death. There are a few animals that have the tolerance and enzymes to process and digest honey (mostly mammals) and some insects. This is one of the reasons you don't ever give honey to a human baby, they just can't tolerate it and it has resulted in either severe illness and/or death.
As far as lizards go, I would never experiment with anything that wouldn't in some way be a natural food in their environment. And not only that, would they, by their nature, eat it. I would also not recommend the "it's Natural, so it must be good" philosophy, for instance: radioactivity is natural, asbestos is natural, hemlock is natural, so is botulism(sic), heroin, cancer and plague, so just because it's "natural" doesn't automatically mean it's "good for ya". My 2 scents(LOL) and more. CW
