I love these snacks, they are healthy full of protein, and fiber.  You don't have to feel guilty eating them, or letting your children enjoy them. Better than a candy bar in my opinion.

I place extras in a freezer safe bag, and they keep really well. Just a couple out and eat.

And studies have shown that Medjool dates can help increase potassium, have b vitamins, help fight tiredness and fatigue, stimulate immune system, reduce inflammation, improve hormone regulation.
