Dates!?

[Canuk]

Where can you buy a good date in this ole country? High in fibre, 65% carbs, great for long rides, but the ones I buy are skinny looking dried out rubbish.... From Aldi!

Waitrose is the way forward: 68% carbs. https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/waitrose-soft-dates/610856-492035-492036
