Soo good

Listen it’s hard to get a perfect date every time but at least 1/3 of the ones in these packages were inedible. They were crumbly, dry and seemed almost to have bugs. And then there’s this tiny one?

Really Good!

I have multiple wonderful recipes that call for a small quantity of dates, and I tend to skip them because I have to buy an entire package at the store for something like 1/8 cup or less of use. When I saw these individual packs, I thought it would be a great way to save on food waste!The dates are a little on the dry side, which is a shame for taking with you as a snack pack, but for cooking I fully submerge the dates in a bowl of hot water from the kettle for about 10 minutes to rehydrate them back up before use. Works perfectly, and they are ready for cooking right away! For recipes that have dates mixed into something that goes in the oven, I have skipped the rehydration step and merely pitted and chopped the dates. Those recipes turned out fine as well. While rehydrating when necessary is no problem for me to do before cooking, it’s not the type of thing you can do while on the go. So these dates work for me for my purpose, but may not work for yours. Note: they do contain pits! Happy snacking!

Just arrived. Opened 1st package & although description states ‘pitted’ they were not. Luckily date pits can’t be missed. Also, their skins are crispy dry and they lack the flavor of fresh packaged dates. Sorry… this date’s not for me.

I love that these are packaged in little to-go packs. I don't use them to take as snacks, but instead use them in several dessert recipes I've tried. The packaging is great because it keeps the dates nice and fresh for whenever I want to use them. Soft, tender, sweet fruits that make a great alternative to sugary desserts.

The dates are nice and plump and large. They are sweet and flavorful. Good quality. BUt note that they are not pitted, which was quite surprising for something made for on the go.

I felt a bit mixed about these dates, although overall I would say that they are good. They were just a bit stale but it didn't detract from the overall taste, and had best by dates that were several months out since they were sealed in packages. The packages had just a handful of dates that are perfect size for lunches, snacks, etc. These dates do have pits, which surprised me since they are meant to be "on the go" and more convenient; not so convenient to have to spit out pits!One small thing to note - the nutrition label on each pack is for that specific pack. It references multiple servings that are obviously wrong (way too many servings) but that's just because it's a copy and paste of the nutrition label from the overall large package.Overall, I would recommend these dates.This review is for: On-The-Go Medjool Dates Multi-Pack | Royal Palm | 16oz | 100% Natural | NO Added Sugar | Kosher
