Dates have a pleasantly soft mouthfeel and their delicious sweetness makes them excellent for muesli, Christmas baking, fruit salad, or as a snack. Due to their high fructose content, dates are an ideal food for endurance and strength athletes.
Dates are the fruit of the date palm, which is native to the desert regions of the Orient and Africa. These oblong to oval-shaped dates are a classic food source for desert nomads and are enjoyed in large quantities throughout the Middle East year-round. Dried dates have a water content of 20% and, due to their high sugar content of 60 to 70%, have a very long shelf life. Dates are also rich in iron, zinc, phosphorus, magnesium, and even contain 50% more potassium than bananas.
