ORFA Medjool Dates|SugarFree Dry Fruits-Pack of 2 Dates  (2 x 500 g)

Medjool dates are a variety of dates enjoyed for their natural sweetness. They're larger, darker, and more caramel-like in taste than other common types like Deglet Noor. As tropical stone fruits, they have a single pit surrounded by edible flesh. All the Medjool dates can be traced back to a single oasis in Morocco," says Doug Adair. Nine offshoots taken from the Oasis of Boudenib, Morocco, are the source of all the present trees. But now, in Morocco and Algeria, where the Medjool originated, the palm has been wiped out by disease. Medjool dates are a FRESH FRUIT. That's why you'll find them in the produce section at the grocery store. Medjool dates have a rich, almost caramel-like taste and a soft, chewy texture whereas regular dates, commonly called Deglet Noor, are usually smaller and have a firm flesh and a sweet, delicate flavor. Medjool dates are a great way to sweeten up your diet while adding vitamins and minerals.
