 Why God didn't create medjool dates to be low calorie and low sugar is beyond me. They're dangerously delicious. 

"Eat less of it, my hungry hungry lamb", he said. No! Why not bless me with the knowledge to hybridise diet versions of them instead. 

I seriously could eat a fucking kilo of jumbo medjool dates stuffed with walnuts. *Sigh* Goodnight.  
 Sigh, drink beer 🍻 

It lowers blood sugar 
 Still too many carbs.  
 I do drink beer as well.
In fact, it goes well with game meat.  
 You can make them taste like candy with peanut butter 🙃 They are dangerously good, especially in the evening. 
 😄 I don't want to die young.  
 hmm maybe we can make a rumor like "if you eat too many medjool dates, then...*insert bad thing* will happen". 
 they go really well with raw milk 
 and tea.. and water 
*sigh*
I've not tried it with milk 
 date shakes are also amazing. just blended milk and dates (honey too if you want to be decadent) 
 Oh my goodness 🤩 
 Yeah, you're not lying!  
 🫂 They're just so good.  
 My mom’s favorites 
 i don't get how people enjoy dates, is it one of those acquired tastes or just switches with age?

🤔 
 you need to try the good kind! 
 do i need to start making food reviews? https://image.nostr.build/e3a6915dded9485e4f9a5f46c336302506e4ff199146c4eb2087b9b0120a71fc.jpg

 Taste Test with Tanel Show 
 hey, that's not too shabby, you know

tasting things all over the world

the ratings will be in magnitude, which one makes me quake the most 
 I’d watch it 💜 
 EXACTLY! 😄 
 i'd love to try more of foreign chocolate

quite liked lindt and ovomaltine back when i got to visit 
 if you can find a Läderach shop, must try. They're my fav of the Swiss made schoggi. 
 if they can somehow magically sustain shipping, you may have just given me an idea for something 
 There are many varieties. I especially prefer medjool. They're like caramel. 🤤 
 I used to think they were really boring. Now I get it. Not sure what changed. 
 I did too. Then I was gifted a box of good ones from an Arab friend and it changed my appreciation for them.  
 ah, so that's where i'm lacking

i need an arab friend 
 He made them that way to encourage us to move a lot and work hard!
