Dates

Can't you get turkish ones?

Yeah but they're nowhere near as good as Saudi dates

California dates are pretty good too but they're not as common for some reason

turkey is the only democracy in the muslim world

get georgian ones

But Stalin was a Georgian but I guess it works since he's considered Russian anyway

>Under Erdogan
>Democracy
Admit Armenian Genocide

it wasn't a genocide.

there is no such thing as "armenian people". certain foreign settlers in eastern anatolia resisted resettlement necessary for protection in time of war
a few died, gülenists then attempt slander against türkish people
please stop spreading feto propaganda

>be college student attending spring activities fair
>see booth set up by Saudi cultural mission
>pick up flyers and eat dates
Never seen a foreign government doing something like that, but I am an IRfag so I was intrigued. I'll be sure to splurge on dates once every blue moon when I'm making a good salary.

wrep them in some salty smoked bacon, grill. salt and sweet heaven.

I've been cleaning my room and found the flyers I took. One of them is about dates so upload will be momentarily.

Interested in this. My ochem professor said he is from a part of India where medjools come from, but I'm not sure if he's mistaken and they just grow there.

Nobody knows where they came from.

Incoming OC.

Again, sorry about the rotated images but I don't know why Veeky Forums rotated the images that were straight.

I usually browse /pol/ and /sp/ (for /cfb/), but I'll be sure to start lurking in Veeky Forums as I enjoy food. Hope Veeky Forums enjoys the brochure.

I love Bam dates.

>Dates freeze well

How have I not done this yet? I love frozen fruit. Anyone ever try freezing medjools?

Also
>Dates are 20 calories each
Not if you get delicious medjools, those suckas are 75cals ea.

Interesting. Do they really import dates from Iran?

Expect dumbasses who don't realise politics is part of almost every area of life in our society to tell you >gb2/pol/

They do in Canada these are from Iran.

>politics is part of almost every area of life

This is what /pol/tards actually believe! Christ you fuckers are a sad lot.

I started browsing /pol/ in college as my major was poly sci in addition to IR. There will always be shit (and it has increased due to the election), but it's a diamond in the rough. I have to wade through a lot of shit, but the gems such as a thread on NK weapons capability or on worldwide radio (this website is so cool: radio.garden/) makes it worthwhile. I do sympathize with most of the viewpoints there, but I also appreciate cultural aspects such as food and music that other groups have to offer that /pol/ tends to downplay.

Here's an example of what an informative thread can be like on /pol/:

t. "white" Hispanic (according to the census anyways)

they look like giant raisins

I want to use dried dates in a bread, similar to raisin bread. What's a good sweet, soft variety for this that I can find on the internet? We don't have any dune coon stores in flyover land.

I love dates, but I feel like doing stuff with them just takes something away. They're the best just as snacks.

Medjools+Almonds are fantastic. I suppose Medjools with any nut is fine, but almonds ar emy favorites

Anyone ever try dates dipped in good tahina? Ever since trying them in Egypt it's been the only way I can enjoy dates.

Eh I wish I could send you some.
I live in SA in city which is very popular in producing Dates.
