Nigella Lawson made breakfast bars with medjool dates for what she claim is a healthy breakfast. I am thinking of making some one morning but I have never bought medjool dates before and I am a bit concerned they might turn out to be too sweet. Has anyone tried them? and are they very sweet?

Medjool dates are sweet.

Yes they are sweet, sometimes I will buy some, & have just one or two as a treat.

I hardly ever buy any as they are too sweet, chewy and I don't like the skin.
