Jordan river dates 800g - £3.88 per kg. Check variety on side of box If Medjoul; these will be cracking value as £9.00 per kg is the minimum price for medjoul. the dates i saw had no discoloration; so no nasty surprises
WRONG!
you really need to try other dates
Jordan River do sell Medjools and those products are labelled as such.
These should be decent enough dates for the price and I have added a box to my next order.
I'm somewhat of a date fanatic.
I would rank supermarket dates as follows
Waitrose fresh dates, occasionally available throughout the year, the eating experience is on another level
Tesco Finest Medjools HAve been pitted and are pretty good, best standard medjools in supermarkets
Sainsburys Zamli Like butter toffee caramels, really really great
Waitrose dates on a branch Fresh Deglet nours but quality varies, can be dry
I dont rate the others much
Nearly all of them grown in the same apartheid state .
I know it's just food but sometimes we have to do the right thing. Medjool dates are indigenous to the area and you'll easily be able to find ethical delicious cheap alternatives.
