Hola Shannon,
for this sentence "I like eating nuts and honey" we would say:
"Me gusta comer nueces y miel."
We omit the article "las" because we are talking in general; we are not talking about some specific walnuts. If it was a bit more specific, with more information about the walnuts then you may find the article, for example:
Me gusta comer las nueces que tú me traes todas las semanas.
I like eating the walnuts that you bring me every week.
Saludos,
Inma
