These are not Jordanian dates from that Middle Eastern kingdom. They are, instead, from the date ranch of Jordan Nelson, one of the four famous J Boys (of Mexican beach fame). Several years ago he bought land in Northern Mexico ~ I think quite close to the US border near San Diego ~ and planted many, many date palms. I have watched the progress via his postings on Instagram. These are from this year's harvest, maybe the first. They are absolutely delicious. A diabetic's dream food! I'm hoping he'll bring more down to the beach when he and his family come for their annual Christmas holiday. If anyone reading this knows Jordan, pass the word!
