Dates.
Does anyone here buy a box of dates to eat at Christmas? My mum always did when I lived at home. Hated them, all sticky and that stone in the middle.

I buy them without stones. They are better in cakes.

I love the gorgeous, plump, sticky dates from Waitrose - the Medjool ones.... dribble!

I've actually been looking for dates yesterday and today. M&S had "luxury" dates, at £4.99 for 12. Sainsbury's had the same dates, plus some French ones which looked awful! Budgen's had none.
So tomorrow it looks like Tesco. I won't use the local ASDA because it has no "basket only" checkouts. The self service area has a notice "Up to about 20 items only"; what on earth does that mean? So it has a queue of full trolleys. |

Ugh my mum bought some yesterday and today I forgot about the seed and bit right through it. Ouch, my teeth. But it tastes nice in the way that they don't taste nice?
