Anna and Sarah Organic Medjool Dates, 2 Pound Bag, No Sugar Added Natural Dates in Resealable Bag, 2 Lbs

The best tasting and freshest ones I’ve ever purchased

I ordered these dates 2 times, the first order was very good, the second time they were not eatable. Very dark , burnt in color, hard and did not taste good . I had to through them out. I called the company to explain why I was not happy about month ago. They said they would replace the dates with a fresh order. But as of today I have not received them. I am very unhappy with this company and would never order from them again!

I am 84 years old and these are the best dates I have ever had. Will order again!!!

I like dates. These dates taste great. The seeds are not problem.

Well I gave these large, organic Medjool dates only a 3-star rating because they came in hard, dried and as if they are years old. They MAY NOT be, but, they definitely seem like very old, hardened, dried-out dates based on my own date-storage experiences. I read the reviews BEFORE I ordered from this seller-product brand name: "Anna and Sarah" 's because the price was one of the most economical prices compared to other dates suppliers on Amazon, as well as the prices of Large, Organic, Medjools that I get fresh from our local area "Fresh Market" store where I live (those are always very, soft and moist; NOT hard nor dried-out as these are). One of the reviewers had said this exact same thing: that the price was good, but to be warned that they were hard & dried-out, as if they were NOT fresh, but old or outdated. I thought to myself, oh well, the price is so good, how bad could they be, maybe they just got a little dried-out & hardened from being exposed to very cold temperatures, also, I thought to myself: it can easily be fixed by either: soaking them in some warm water a few minutes before consuming, or perhaps by storing the bag of them in a warm environment or room. Well, the reviewer was right 100%, but, I took the risk ,so I can't really complain--I HAD been "warned", none-the-less, they STILL taste sweet and good for cooking or other recipes. I see why the price is so low now--perhaps they ARE old, despite the fact that on the bag it says: good thru next year--same month, which: heck, I guess really does not mean anything, if we believe everything we read, anything can be incorrect, or a mere opinion. It does not signify how OLD these dates actually are...It simply is what a company CHOOSES to suggest as an expiration date for something that typically doesn't pose any health-risks to consume-for its age, but, just may not be as soft & moist, nor as fresh a product as if it were not so old. No too mad, but, not the BEST fresh dates as if I HAD went ahead and paid the higher price for those SOFT, moist fresh ones at our local market. I guess IF I ONLY wanted to use them ALL for making recipes, I would buy these again, but, mostly I bought them to snack on, right out of the bag, or to pack in my purse and gym bags for ON-THE-GO snacking.
