Those are being marketed in the "Higher Protien" group of dates and figs.  It's a new marketing campaign lol  :roflmao:

Dear Merle,

Would it be normal practice to dry these outside?

I just forwarded this to my co-worker who eats a case of dates when possible in a day and loves figs!!!

I've tested figs and have found ants inside... I will never eat one after that discovery.

I've seen candied figs and have wondered about what could be inside...
