What makes our dried medjool dates different?
A lot of dried medjool dates are soaked in glucose syrup to sweeten it and make it look more attractive. Some even add a touch of “naturalness” to their product by adding a palm branch which is in reality just a plastic spine painted to make it look like a real branch.
