I'm not aware that honey is the name of an English county though.
The food in question is a type of meat.

Devon
Originally 'Defnas'. The word shire was added and has subsequently been lost. Defnas is derived from the Celtic tribal name Dumnonii, which is of unknown origin. The Welsh name for Devon is Dyfnaint and the Cornish name is Dewnans.
Essex
Literally 'East Saxons'. The county was the former petty Kingdom of the East Saxons.
That's the county. Knowing what that means to Australians - particularly those from the eastern States - should help you work out the country.

Well other definitions include
Deep Valley dewllers
Sausage meat
Defender
Red Cattle
Poet
So some sort of Sausage......
Known in the UK as luncheon meat I believe - but also known in Australia by the name of a European country, although I've no idea why.

No - the name of the meat is exactly the same as the name of the country.
