Medjool Dates

Medjool dates are often called the “king of dates” because of their large size, natural sweetness, and soft, chewy texture. Originally cultivated in Morocco, they are now grown in warm climates such as the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of the United States like California and Arizona. Unlike many other dried fruits, Medjool dates are usually sold fresh, which helps them retain their rich flavor and nutrients.
