Product description
A cost effective, alternative variety to Medjool Dates, less sweet and darker in color. Dates have long been
a common food item in the Middle East, where they originated as a cultivated crop over 5000 years ago.
Today dates are also grown in the U.S.; they were introduced to California by Spanish missionaries in
the 1700's. Dates contain no cholesterol and they are a good source of fiber.
