 Fruit has always been eaten by humans whenever possible; even in tropical locations fruit is seasonal, you only get it for a couple of weeks and then it's gone until next year. Humans, and other mammals in the wild, use fruit strategically to put on fat before the winter. All fruit has been cross-bred by both humans and other animals to have a higher sugar content than it did in the past. 
Honey is pure sugar if the water is removed. There is NO meaningful nutrition at all. Raw honey = honey = sugar. Honey has much more fructose than high-fructose corn syrup...
Raw goat milk is closer to human breast milk than the milk of any other domesticated animal, at least in the US. It is great for infants & children. Milk is never needed for adult humans (more on this later)
