Let's go on a date, Gully! 😅

"I have 9 dates from different parts of the world" Gully is an ultimate seducing player being on a dating journey

Sukkari is my favorite. It's so soft and gooey and sweet and goes perfectly with a cup of bitter Arabic coffee. The sweetness of the date and the bitterness of the coffee balance each other out perfectly

The best majdoul comes from my homeland of Palestine. The palm trees of baisan have held dates for generations now Alhumdillah.

For those wondering, different species of dates can be grown in different parts of the world. It's not like, for example, medjool can only be grown in cali. Additionally, if you're gonna try it for the first time, make sure to split them in half with your fingers to check for bugs(usually about 1/25 has bugs). Finally, i think the best way to describe the flavor of a date is; a rich, mature thick honey, slightly simmered with a bit of molasses and smoked flavor, occasionally dabbled with a floral accent. However this can change depending on the date you chose, however i find that this description is best applicable when enjoying a medjool. :)

Ajwa is Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) fav date I love it ❤

Iam from Panjgoor, a city in South Western Balochistan neighbouring Iran. Mentioned below are some of the dates that we grow and each of them has their own unique taste and textures. 1. Kaarubah ( a little grape like date filled with honey like juice when it ripens, not much to chew but one could eat ton of them). 2. Aabdandan ( Aab meaning water and dandan meaning teeth, actually its very soft even if it's not ripe. Dissolves instantly in your mouth and super sweet) 3. Mozzati ( A near cousin of Muzafati from your video) 4. Sabzo ( consumed well before ripening because it's way more crunchy and Juicy when it halfway through and gets its green/bluish colour) 5. Redag ( when ripe, it's texture is a little bit hard like a refrigerated Mars chocolate and way less sweet from other dates of our town, my personal favourite. A bit rare too.) 6. Alina ( A round yellow and medium sweet date it ripens too late, well near winters so it's a fresh date when there is none other.) 7. Rabai ( creamy and sweet flavour) Others 8.begum Jungi 9. Sor 10. Shakar. 11. Dundairy 12. Zard .

Sukkari any day of the week! I keep the dates in the fridge until they are hard and cold. There's just this feeling that I get whenever I bite into a hard cold date. Having them for Iftar after a hot day is an experience that never gets old. The dates quickly quench the thirst and that sweetness is second to none. I don't find the other dates that sweet. I randomly crave something sweet and Sukkari is my go-to. It is healthy and you only need to eat 1 or 2. Amazing dates

When describing the flavor of a date, you can use words such as sweet, caramel-like, rich, and earthy. You may also describe the texture as chewy and soft, with a slight nuttiness. Additionally, you can mention any notes of honey, molasses, or vanilla that you taste. The flavor can vary depending on the type of date, so it's important to specify which variety you're describing.

In Egypt there's 2 types of fresh dates that I love one is deep red and sweet, it's called Zaghloul dates (بلح زغلول) it also kinda dries your mouth, but you get used to it 😅 and the other is brown and even sweeter, it's called Amhary dates (بلح أمهري) and it's not crunchy, it has a thin strong peel and super gooey on the inside

It's so funny to me how you always manage to eat the fruit when it's not ripe 😂 The fresh dates from what I remember in my childhood look very different when ripe. The skin can almost be peeled like it's not sticking to the date and the inside turns to this brown carmel translucent color and it gets really soft it immediately melts in your mouth and is super sweet . It used to be one of my favorite dates when I was a kid easily the softest dates ever

Medjoul or as we call it in morocco majhoul is originally from tafilalt a region in central east morocco It's customary here to welcome guest with majhoul dates and milk 😊

there are two ways to eat the fresh dates. some like to eat it the way you did for us and others like myself prefer to eat it when it's a bit more riped meaning the fresh dates become softer almost like the feel of a very riped peach. not too riped cause if you leave the fresh dates to ripe for too long, it will spoil very quickly. fresh dates will take about three to seven days to ripen, depending on temperature and desired ripeness. i prefer to eat fresh dates after the medjool. i'll eat medjool for ramadan and fresh dates whenever. ajwa dates are mostly used for arabic sweets especially in the sweets called mammoul. you should try them! they're like soft cookies stuffed with dates inside of them.

Did you ever see a guy who can judge food like their life depends on it Me: yes this guy🤣

ive only had mazafati and medjool dates honestly (although i prefer mejdool tbh) but ive heard from my parents that before they left iraq, they used to have multiple birhi date trees and that these dates were better than any variety they've had since coming to the west. the fresh date you had looks a lot like the fresh birhi dates they described to me ^-^

I never liked khajoor (dates) growing up, but until I went to Madina & Makkah in 2021 to do my Umrah I started to enjoy eating them. The dates fresh in Saudia Arabia - particularly Ajwah dates hit so different. Ajwah is definitely my favourite there. We went to a date farm and had Ajwah fresh and it was insane how soft and melt-y they were in your mouth. Climate really does impact dates. Eating them in their heritage climates is truly important to get the full date experience.

I grew up in Saudi before moving to Toronto as a kid. I used to go back every year though to visit up until a few years ago. So I’d say I’ve had some of the best dates around Alhamdulillah. You got Ajwa absolutely right. It is incredibly rich and sweet Subhanallah. Dark honey/molasses is spot on. I will say this .. the quality over there in Saudi Is on a different level. You won’t find them to be as hard as you found this one. They’re quite soft and chewy with a bite. For me personally, good quality Sukkari is on another level. I can almost bet if you tried that, It would be your favourite. It’s hands down the most delicious. Subhanallah. I describe the taste as an intense caramel, with notes of honey and nuts. Beautiful. And the texture is perfect as well. It’s not hard but has just the right amount of bite. The sukkari we get here in the GTA, is just not on the same level unfortunately. I hope that helps :)

May Ramadan bring you prosperity and joy.

If the fresh dates are making your mouth dry, then they aren't ripe enough. Fresh ripe dates are lovely, with a gentle juicy sweetness to them and the crunch makes it very satisfying to eat.

Never in my life thought I would watch a 4 minute long video on just 'dates' well here I am and I'm loving it ❣️

Grass is one of the most common and abundant types of plants on Earth, and it plays a vital role in the ecosystem. It is a member of the Poaceae family, which includes many different species that vary in size, shape, and color. Some grasses grow to be several meters tall, while others are small and inconspicuous. They can be found in a wide range of habitats, from forests and meadows to deserts and wetlands. One of the most important functions of grass is that it serves as a primary source of food for many herbivorous animals, such as cattle, sheep, and deer. In fact, grass is so essential to many grazing animals that they have evolved specialized teeth and digestive systems to help them efficiently extract nutrients from this tough and fibrous plant. Grass also plays a crucial role in preventing soil erosion, especially in areas where there is little vegetation. The dense network of roots that grass develops helps to anchor the soil in place and prevents it from being washed away by rainfall or blown away by wind. Moreover, grass is effective at absorbing and storing water, which can help to prevent flooding and erosion during heavy rainfall. Another benefit of grass is that it contributes to the oxygen cycle by producing oxygen through photosynthesis. This is important for maintaining a healthy atmosphere, as oxygen is necessary for the survival of many different types of organisms, including humans.Additionally, grass provides a habitat for many different species of insects, birds, and small mammals. The tall grasses of meadows and prairies offer shelter and nesting sites for many species of birds, while the underground burrows created by small mammals such as rabbits and groundhogs provide homes for other animals. In conclusion, grass is an essential and often underappreciated component of the natural world. It provides food, shelter, and oxygen for countless organisms, and helps to prevent soil erosion and flooding. The importance of grass in the ecosystem cannot be overstated, and it is essential that we take steps to preserve and protect this vital resource.

Broo deglets are amazing. The one you tried didn't look like premium quality :) when you take a ripe deglet from its branch, they're so soft the pit literally stays behind on the branch and you end up with a pitless date Edit : good thing you got the madjool from California. In Europe most of these dates are imported from a country we prefer to boycott in solidarity to our brothers who "live" there.

I fell in love with Sukkari dates when I went for Umrah. The hotels give them to you with some strong, bitter tea. When they're "fresh", soft, gooey, and super sweet I can eat a dozen easily. Before trying Sukkari dates, I was indifferent to dates my entire life.

Medjoul dates are one of the best things I tasted. It's so delicious, addictive and that bite is irresistible, how chewy it is! I'm always eager to dig in right away whenever I buy them. I'm happy I got introduced to them, wish that I could buy them more often but they are so worth it, when you think about the whole process behind them. Keeping them in the fridge makes it even better I think. People that haven't tasted Medjoul dates and say they dislike the date taste have just missed something really incredible. Ooh I can't have enough of them, really love them!!

If i HAD to describe it, dates are quite mellow and rich due to their blunt and subtle taste and gooey texture. This is accompanied by an all-round light sweetness. Not something one tends to binge, but rather a pallete cleanser and initial starter. This opinion may be due to the wide usage of dates for initially breaking the fast.

Here in albania 🇦🇱 deglet dates are the most popular ones and almost everyone eats those. Recently also sukari and mazafati dates have been brought and now we get mazafati (in my family) and i just love them. I have also tried sukari and they are soooo good ❤

I've grew up eating Ajwa and Medjool dates, they never miss man! They hit absolutely hard!

I am Algerian and yes our dates have the taste of caramel, i am always very careful eating them because they're sweet and addictive lol my second favorite is saudian dates they're really good

Chatgpt says: Date flavor is sweet, rich, and caramel-like with a hint of honey. The texture is chewy and slightly sticky. When fresh, dates have a more tender, slightly juicy texture, while dried dates are firmer and have a more concentrated sweetness. Some varieties may have a nutty undertone, while others may exhibit more complex flavors with hints of cinnamon or toffee.

Whenever I was deployed to Jordan, I was introduced to dates. Nothing I’ve found since being back to the states can replicate the sweetness of the dates over there. Same goes for the deliciousness of the food. One of the most beautiful countries of all time, undoubtedly

As much as I love Ajwa, since I grew up with Medjool always being served, that will always be the baseline that I compare other dates to. Medjool dates are also much softer than the other dates that I've tried.

as a syrian, most families from the Levant tend to get palestinian medjool dates, and they are personally my favorite.

I love this. I had no idea how many different types there are and probably more right? Dates are so amazing. I have to limit myself to a few a day but could eat way more.

Gully out here eating out his 9 dates from different places at midnight,truly a saviour 😢

Sukkari and the "traditonal date" are my favorites. Idk maybe the traditional are called the khudri, but sometime the ones we get are a lot smoother and juicer. Pretty sure they have a process to make them better or something. Also, why eat a fresh date?? We eat the fresh dates as half and half. Half fresh and half date to cut down the sweetness. Beautiful food.

Sukari are my fave. If you find them fresh (usually in the fridge or freezer section), they are golden bites of Caramel decadence! Try scooping dates with labneh, cream or even tahini!

Those fresh dates are the best imo, always excited when I see them in a fruit shop 🥰

Kinda expected date kulfi. Which… would actually be good tbh

Actually Majhoul dates are originally from Morocco, they are our favorite here.

Deglet if one of my favourite, it is so sweet it taste like honey and when you drink it with milk on the end of a day of ramadan what a amazing experience! The sugar of the date get mixed with the milk incredible

There are dates from Algerian desert that are quite big, really soft and super sweet. I've had them only once because i had a neighbor from the desert who gave me one

I grew up eating Deglet nour You have the date flavour and the honey flavour Its so good

Medjool dates are now grown in various parts of the world, but they were originally cultivated in Morocco 🇲🇦, where they have been an important part of our local cuisine for centuries.

I feel like dates are an underrated fruit in a lot of parts of the world, but it’s a really tasty fruit that goes so well with coffee

You should let the fresh dates ripen completely. 100% you'll love it.

Dates are the perfect Ramadan snack

So like how dates taste like are that they have a distinct sweetness flavor and slight hints of the taste of caramel. And also, notes of butterscotch, toffee and cinnamon.

very unique tasting video you got here m8! i always wanted to see something like this but never realized to conscious level, until i saw the thumbnail and title 😂 cool

Gully never disappoints, keep working hard king

Algerian and Tunis dates are the best especially the local ones 👌👌👌11/10 ❤️

As a Saudi my life with dates has been sagai sukari ajwa (barely) and a new type not sure though called jalaxy which I think is closely related to sukkari and about medjool I think it’s a date that can be grown in multiple regions not like the others and there is also ilkhlas like the sura which i think is a method since you always see it covered in some molasses like syrup though I’ve never seen the last 2

Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W) favorite date was "AJWA" and when I tried it for the first time I was also in love with AJWA

The Ajwa is my First date... I will remember the feeling of having a date for the first time for my whole life.

Dates have a rich, sweet flavor with notes of caramel, honey, and brown sugar. They often have a slight nuttiness and a subtle, fruity undertone. The texture is soft and chewy, which complements their deep, syrupy taste. Some varieties may also have a hint of spiciness or a molasses-like undertone

I love medjool as well! The medjool from Jordan are amazing, especially the fresh ones!!

Bout to get Different Date Kulfi 😂

My favorite is “khalas” its sweet and sticky, it’s always packaged tightly in bag We sometimes fry it with a bit of butter (NOT OIL) then dip it in fresh creme, so good 😋

that fresh one looks like the dates we have here in iraq called barhi but in its khilal phase , we also have multiple varieties of dates like khistawi and zahdi and khidrawi

Ajwa is my favourite type of date because to me it has a balanced honey like flavour. As for what dates taste like, they taste like dark chocolate filled with honey and then dehydrated and given a melt-in-your-mouth but hard shell texture.

Medjool dates are actually originally from Morocco 🇲🇦 My favorites are sukkari dates 🥰

Ajwa is my favourite❤ I love how sweet and chewy it is❤❤

My family gets Medjool dates every year for Ramadan and they’re so good man they’re so soft and you can never go wrong with them

I remember when I did the Umra years ago in Mecca and Medina I bought a bunch of these Note : the black and hard one is to say to have « Allah » writing on it and my favorite was Sukkari, I miss it so much would love to get them from the internet watching this video Also I’m in France so I guess we’re eating mostly Algerian dates, it looks a lot like the American one you prefer

Gully i don’t know if Iraqi dates are available in Canada where you live but i can assure you Iraqi dates are the best in the world, also Iraq has the most types of dates than any other country in the world with over 600 types of dates, if you ever get the chance to try it, i highly recommend you do.

I really want to try Ajwa khajoor, I've heard that it's quite tasty

We need a part 2 cuz there’s so many good dates not in the vid. I like mabroom dates too. Should deffo try.

I once bought fresh dates from a vendor in saudi where they store it in sort of an ice box, which i assumed they froze it first, and its super refreshing, like it almost had a texture of a grape, and it doesnt dried your mouth like a freshly picked ones (but i coud be wrong about the type of the dates they're selling tho)

LOVE UR VIDS BILAL BHAIYAH. WHERE ARE U FROM IN PAKISTAN?

Who needs a dating app while you can watch gully have 9 dates from the world at one

it's pretty difficult to explain the flavour but if i wanted to explain it to someone i would say it has few components that can help like it's a bit sweet and earthy and also it's texture helps in the flavour but i think it has similar taste to a food most of the people had so it's similar to date.

Love the thin skin on the deglets but the medjools are classic! Never tried the Ajwa though I might be missing out!

Ajwa for the win it’s the besttt IN MY OPINION LOL😭😭

Love from Pakistan Karachi ❤️❤️❤️ btw Ramadan Mubarak 😄

Nothing beats fresh dates fron Bahrain, they're not eaten liken that. They're usually left in the sun for a week or 2 which enables them to ripen into really sweet dates

if you ever go to Madinah, the ajwa in the date stores are so soft and moist. They dry out over time, that is why you had the hard outer layer and soft inside. If you get the right ones, the entire date is soft.

W rizz gully

Deglet nour is king

Sukkari dates are easily my favorite, I always snack on it with arabic coffee and the fresh dates don't seem they're ripe

Ajwa, Medjool, and ripe fresh dates are my fav (I've been eating medjool since I was kid so ajwa is a nice change). The fresh dates you ate weren't ripe! You should wait for them to brown a little (mushy but no overly mushy) and they taste the best refrigerated!!!

My entire life I used to think all dates are the same…

hey guys so today we are going to be making 9 date kulfi 😂 you know saturdays are my cheat days 👀

Dates are a mix of flavors... It reminds me of honey, brown sugar, pancake syrup, raisins, earth (mushroom-like) and caramel. Each date has a variation of those flavors in different percentages to comprise the whole date.

I grew up eating sukkari and I love how sweet it is and when I was younger I used to live in saudi so every time we would go to macca in Ramadan and we would always buy some there and go back to my grandparents house which was in macca and sometimes we would make a date cake i recommend it its nice

Always thought of dates as some crazy middle eastern food. But it tastes like the best raisin ever.

Dates are probably the candies of fruits

My favorite is definitely the classic one, Ajwa! Which also happens to be the most expensive ones but they're worth the price

I work in a restaurant and we serve dates. I usually tell people they taste like a more earthy raisin. We use the California ones haha

Usually when I eat fresh dates, I let them ripped much more. The color will change a bit and they’ll get more sweet and juicy? Not that juicy but not drying etc. They’re really good when they’re ripe

1:46 To me, dates are like almond-ish but sweeter. Sweet almonds if you will

I wasn't even aware there were so many types of Dates. Very interesting!

Sukarri is my favorite and the one we got this year. Medjool and ajwa are definitely close seconds though

When you use a medjool for the nabidh, man it hit different. I want to try the ajwa for nabidh.

I'd describe sukhari dates as tasting like how honey but solidified would taste, very nice!

You’re right about sukkari dates, Issa local grown dates in saudi and almost tastes like honey and cant be eaten more than one cuz of its extreme sweetness

sukkari by a margin. it literally tastes like chocolate to me and melts so easily in the mouth. perfect size and texture.

I was given a box of dates from Morocco and they're quite different from the medjool kind I'd normally buy in Ireland. A lot dryer and light colour to them & not so sweet and sticky. Still they're very nice. I think they are sagai from your video but the box doesn't appear to say.

I am growing a medjool date palm from a seed, you can just use the seed from the grocery store dates and have your own at home in like 20 years 😂

The last one is the shape of any type of dates before they are ripe. Its taste defrent according to the type. For example, the sukary fresh diet is dry and not sweet. But anthor type called Barhi is very tasty, sweet and not dry at all.

Next up: Can we make dates into Kulfi? You know Saturdays are my cheat days

I have no idea what variety they were, but the best dates I ever had were bought on vacation from some from some Italian food market in Halifax, they were short and a deep purplish brown color, and tasted like like a mix of lemon cake and caramel.
