I ate one and was amazed at how sweet it was. It was brown, about 2 inches long and had a pit. I never ate a date before and was curious if these are a natural fruit or if someone cooked some ingredients to make this item. The fact that it has a pit makes me think it is a fruit that grows in a tree or bush or maybe underground like a potato. Maybe it is a nut that grows inside some kind of shell. I did find this blog that says something about Palm Trees but I thought Palm Trees grew coconuts on them. Can someone answer these questions? Also, if what I had was a dried date then what is a date before it's dried? This blog says that they are cantaloupes before they are dried but I can't imagine that this is true because it has one big pit instead of many little ones. Also what is a "Medjool?" I really like dates but I don't really understand what they are. I found this blog via a google search but I don't really know how to get back here. Thank you.
