Rancho Meladuco Date Farm - "Grinders" - the Imperfect Medjool Dates, Whole Unpitted, 9 oz. Cup

So addicting!!! They are so ripe and delicious. Sweet, gooey, almost like a caramel inside. I buy them as a treat every so often. For the price you get great quality and flavor. If you like Medjool Dates these are a great option. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Delicious almost candy

These dates make a great snack and controlling sugar. It is great you don't feel deprived by eating these dates don't make you feel like you have had a special treat.

I've been ordering these dates weekly for the past year or so…always arrive plump and delicious. Over the past few months I've noticed they must be popular as the store has been out of them a couple times. I'm wondering if the poor reviews are a way to decrease their popularity? Rest assured you are ordering a high quality date.

These dates are delicious. They had a perfect texture and were moist and full of flavor. The dates were large and sweet and there were plenty of them. The container was packed full, which is a rarity in any food, let alone snack foods. I would definitely recommend them.

These are delicious dates! Some of the containers are not as fresh and moist as others. Perhaps this is due to the packaging. Nonetheless they are edible even when not as fresh and moist.

These are the best dates in the market! We've tried every single brand of Medjool dates and these have the most delectable flavour profile with outstanding consistency. We eat them straight from the fridge, utterly delicious!

Those are the best dates. I bought 3 time, the first 2 time everything was great taste and how it look. The 3rd one was spoiled dated with fungus. I had to throw it away. Please Walmart store them the right way. I love those dates.

Good price, the quality varies because of the imperfections as advertised, so you will not be sure to get the same grade of dates every time you order. Imperfections do not really make the dates taste much different, maybe some are blemished or drier, smaller or juicier. Price is lower to account for that, so I have purchased them dozens of times, but I also try other lower priced dates. Packaging is good for us but some might not like the bulkiness of a cup.

So these dates say "our imperfect but delicious dates". Which I find to be an accurate statement. Always open these with your fingers before biting into them blindly. When I first started getting these I thought to myself... "Why would they call them imperfect??? They were gooey but not fermented, sweet %26 delicious. There's nothing wrong with them!" Then after getting this brand many times I've noticed occasionally there will be dates with either mold, or small worms/eggs inside. It's not super often but it does sometimes happen. I also notice sometimes a whole container is completely fine, while another one will have quite a lot of moldy or worm egg ones. I've also had sometimes where the dates were more dried out than others. The gooey-ness level varies between containers. It's a hit or miss. But most of the time these are good. Best date brand/kind available in Walmart's stores to buy.

Quality is incredibly inconsistent. When they're good, they sweet, soft, and delicious. However, when they're not, they're crusty, hard, and dry. Or they're wormy. It's unfortunate that you never know what you're going to get when you open the package. The first time that I encountered worms in the container, I emailed their customer service, who were very prompt and informative. It's food and, of course, pests happen, I understand that. They told me that the worms pose no health concern and aren't dangerous and that was fine by me. But many more purchases and several more wormy containers later is really unfortunate. Even if they're not harmful, they eat the dates and change their quality and seeing their feces stuck to the walls of the container is frankly just gross. This product just isn't worth the gamble for me anymore.
