Joolies Organic Whole Medjool Dates | "Ugglies" 4.4 Pound Bulk Box | Fresh California Grown Fruit | Vegan, Gluten-Free, Paleo, No Sugar Added | Perfect Holiday Gift for Friends & Family

These dates are absolutely awesome! They’re HUGE, and soft, not all dried out and hard. They’re soft and delicious. Wonderful!

The media could not be loaded. Given the inflation situation, this deal is worth it simply because the quality is of high standards and the quantity is just right. If these same box of dates was sold at stores, I would have to pay at least double if not more. Dates are expensive!There is nothing wrong with these dates... They are fresh, soft, big, they are packaged in a cute box, but best of all, they are organic, simply natural. The box is very cute but kind of heavy due to the weight of the dates; mine weights 4.4 pounds. I tend to use my dates often for smoothies instead of processed white sugar, eat them alone, but just one because these ones are huge and one would be enough to satisfy you and give you energy. I also accompany lentil soup with a date since the salty flavor of the soup and the sweetness of the dates complement each other; they taste delicious. These are perfect before workouts and post workouts and will also fill you up. I would definitely purchase these dates from California again and I also think they are wonderful as a gift.RatingsFreshness: 5 Indeed, they are fresh; the way they should beFlavor: 5 Rich, delicious, and very sweet flavorAirtight storage: 5 the packaging keeps the dates fresh so farI keep my dates in its original packaging and monitor them from time time. If I feel I got to place them in the fridge so they won't go bad fast, I place them in the the fridge and they will last me a very long time. I sometimes also freeze them.I hope this review helps you in deciding about the purchase of this product.

It tastes delicious and it’s a great price. So happy I bought! Tastes very and it’s healthy!!!

Ordered these in my last trimester to help prep for labor. These are so delicious! Came in fresh and will definitely keep eating after delivery.

I bought Joolies brand Ugglies dates in the 4.4 pound cardboard boxes for years. I used one box every 2 or 3 months. The dates were fresh, delicious, good-sized, and easy to cut a few into 1/4" pieces for a radicchio salad I eat frequently. The whole dates stayed fresh in the refrigerator for all that time, though I did split them up into several plastic margarine tubs I re-use.AFTER Joolies changed the packaging to the plastic bags with zip-lock tops I was offered two 2-lb bags instead and I bought and paid for them, thinking they would be fine. The dates were extremely hard. They were actually dangerous to cut into smaller pieces, that is how hard they were. My sharpest knife could not get a starting cut going without slipping off the hard date surface!I wrote to Joolies to let them know and I got a credit from Amazon. The flavor of the bagged dates was OK, but the dates were not nearly as moist or as tasty as they were before and several had that black powder fungus dates can get. After throwing away the bad dates that Amazon credited me for I bought several bags of Nuts.com dates on their web-site and they were even better and larger than Joolies Ugglies dates. The Nuts.com prices are about $2.00/lb higher than Ugglies dates.Months later, totally out of the blue, I was shipped one of my usual 4.4-lb cardboard boxes of Ugglies dates by Amazon and was billed the normal price for it. It must have been back-ordered. Those dates are the normal fresh, soft and tasty product, and I am eating them now after the 2 months it took me to finish off the Nuts.com dates. Even opening the Ugglies box after a couple of months in the fridge, they were still moist and fresh. Clearly either the bagged product is inferior or the bags themselves are ruining the dates. The boxed Ugglies dates last a long time in the fridge and still taste great.But... now that 4.4-lb cardboard packaging is unavailable again.

Arrived fresh and in good condition.Recommend

It is tasty. But small in size. Sticky.

The front of the bag says no bad dates. It is an accurate statement. There was not one which was dried out or tasted nasty. Moist and fantastic. It is impossible to ask for anything else. Eat them!
