Aldi are selling medjoul Dates for the bargain price of £3.49 - closest price I've seen to this is 400g for £3.99 in Asda.

By far the best dates in my humble opinion 😁

Found in Aldi Quedgeley (Glos) in the home baking aisle, I suspect it's nationwide.

    Why sadly? Medjoul dates are dates, irrespective of where they are grown. …Why sadly? Medjoul dates are dates, irrespective of where they are grown. Let's keep the childish politics out, please folks!;)

    It's not politics, it's human rights, it's morality.

    We boycotted South Africa when they did the same thing to the native population!

    That's a disgrace that they seem to have purposely not stated origin of product so sales are not affected!
    Very sly move by Aldi

    Deffo.

    gov.uk/foo…how

    I'm surprised and have said to aldi to call me back in regards to why they have not stated country of origin.

    Even the guys on the phone(I was passed to a couple) didn't quite understand why it's been missed out.

    Deffo a sly move by Aldi..

    Shame we don't know! These are particularly nice though! Softer and sweeter than the Asda ones I reckon!

    800g isreali medjool dates in tesco £3.10 and they're delicious. I intentionally buy them because it makes other people angry and that makes me happy.

    Can order Palestinian online, give it a google. Or go to a local asian supermarket.

    I once had a Palestinian date but then I went for an Israeli. Far tastier but less hairy. (edited)

    Hi, I've haven't seen such large boxes of Medjools but will check my local Tesco Extra store. Are they found with the fresh fruits or in a specialist section?
    On-line only shows 200g or mini packs

    Heat for your deal, OP!

    Got a pack from Aldi's store at Bidston Moss, Wirral. Thanks,OP!
    (Strange that no country of origin is stated - I thought it was a requirement for foodstuffs)

    if they include the stones you can get them to grow quite easily.
