    The bee comment may have been a combination of two facts that get tossed around a lot:

    Store bought blueberry muffins often use figs dyed blue

    Figs often contain traces of bees that are difficult to remove

        I’ve actually only ever heard wasps. Not sure if bees pollinate figs and get trapped too. I guess it’s not a farfetched idea.
