Honey is a by-product of bees, the same way that all human made food is a by-products of humans.

so if I buy food from people I'm basically a cannibal

I think it’s more accurate to think of you trapping humans in your basement and leaving them a bag of groceries every once in a while. Then you go down there and take whatever they cooked with the produce. They get to eat what they make, you just get the leftovers. They also can’t leave.

Seems more akin to letting them milk themselves and collecting it from the fridge.

I don’t think so. Bees make honey for food. Humans drink their mother’s milk as babies, sure, but they don’t keep producing milk and storing it as food as a regular practice.
