Absolutely delicious

Absolutely delicious. Use on baking instead of sugar. The well designed box feels like I’m getting a gift for myself. Easy to order and arrived well packaged.

Thank you so much for this amazing review, Jacqui! We love that you’re using the dates in baking as a natural alternative to sugar. Hearing that the box felt like a little gift to yourself is especially lovely, and we’re glad the ordering and delivery experience was just as enjoyable. :)

Received the dates

Received the dates. In general, they are good but on the dry side.
The dates that i buy from store are better.
I enjoyed tasting the different kinds of dates.
I find them dry and harder those i bought at the store.
I'm not sure i would buy again...

Thanks for sharing your feedback, Anik. Dates naturally vary quite a bit in moisture content and texture from one variety to another, so not every type is meant to have the same very soft feel. If you mainly enjoy extremely soft or mushy dates, then some of our varieties may simply not be the best fit for your preference.

That said, we were surprised to hear this feedback across the board, especially regarding the Sukkari Galaxy. That is the first time we’ve heard a customer describe that variety as dry.

We’re glad you still enjoyed trying the different kinds, and we’ll be here if you decide to come back. :)

Mabroom

Finally a place I can get ethically sourced good mabroom dates I couldn’t find them anywhere_!!! Good quality

Zaki, this means so much to us. Thank you! Mabroom can be surprisingly hard to find, especially when it’s ethically sourced and high quality. :) We think they’re a very underappreciated variety, so we’re really glad you enjoyed them.

Relationship Status: DATING

For years I've just bought the bag of dates from Costco, but wanted to try these out and support a small company and after I learned how many different dates there are ~ I wondered why I would NOT give Mighty Mejdool a try. I ordered I think 5 different types and boy am I ever happy I have found this business! The dates were delivered in just a few days, nicely boxed and the dates....OMG.....I don't think I can EVER go back to the big box store bag again. I'm loving the flavours of each! This was my 1st time but it won't be the last!

Thank you Wendy! :D We love the “Relationship Status: DATING” line. That jump from big box dates to discovering how many varieties are out there is exactly the moment we hope people experience. So glad the flavours, packaging, and freshness won you over, and hearing you can’t go back is a huge compliment. Sounds like this relationship is just getting started ;)

Delicious Dates Don't Disappoint

I ordered a starter pack after seeing your interview on CTV News. These were all so delicious. My favourite is mabroom, love the harder, chewier texture and taste! I ended up reordering one pound boxes of mabroom, sugai and sukkari gaf. It's a great way to get more daily fiber, and we all know we need more fiber in our diets! Already running low on supplies, will need to order again :)

Thank you SO much Brenda!! We love hearing that the CTV interview led you to the Starter Pack, and that Mabroom won you over with that firmer, chewier bite. Reordering Mabroom, Sagai, and Sukkari Gaf is the best compliment, and you’re absolutely right about dates being an easy way to add more fibre. Sounds like it’s almost time for another restock. :D Enjoy!

Love these dates, and are fresh!

Love that these dates, they are fresh and l learned about the different varieties. Can't wait to cook with them.

Thanks so much, Sandra! Really glad you enjoyed the freshness and got to learn about the different varieties. Mabroom is great for cooking! You can even chop it up as a salad topper for a sweet, chewy boost. Hope you have fun experimenting with it!

Amazing training fuel!!!

These are by far the best dates I’ve ever had! My first order was for Mabroom an Sagai and they are incredible! I’m an endurance athlete and dates are an important part of my training nutrition - I always eat 3-4 dates before a training session to ensure I have enough energy to get through a hard endurance block. I also like to pack a few in my hip belt on my shorter training hikes and for longer hikes, 30+km, I use them to balance out my carb sources because they’re easy on my stomach and don’t cause any GI issues from carb loading. I recently started putting them in homemade protein bars and they’re unreal!

Dates also help with my disrupted sleep. Overnight my blood sugar lowers which often causes a cortisol spike which wakes me up around 2am. 1 or 2 dates 30 minutes before bed goes a long way to helping me stay asleep!
I’m so glad I found these things!

Wow, Matt, this is amazing to read! Thanks for sharing how you’re using the dates for both training and everyday life. We’re so glad they’re fueling your endurance blocks, hikes, and even helping with sleep. And the photo on the trail is next level. We LOVE seeing dates in action! Appreciate the support and the inspiration.

Mabroom is my favourite after sukkari

I've had the sukkari variety before but I think mabroom is my second favourite. I really like the chewiness and richness of it. Shipping was very reasonable and arrived in just a few days.

Thanks for your review, Gamal! Mabroom’s chewiness and rich flavour make it a close second for a lot of people. Glad it arrived quickly and that you’re enjoying both favourites!

Obsessed!! Best date I’ve ever had!!🤣

When my husband decided he wanted to get off of sugar but still wanted dessert I was tasked with finding something to mimic sugar in recipes. Mejdool dates were a common healthier option that I repeatedly came across. I started to research mejdool dates and was extremely surprised at their benefits!!
Store bought dates worked at first but I soon found myself passing them by. I stumbled across the Mighty Mejdool website and was intrigued. I bought a box of each one. First bite I was hooked!!! Soft sweet amazing I will
Never buy any others!!! These are the best mejdool dates out there!!!

Heather, this was such a fun review to read ... thank you! :) We love that your search for a better dessert option led you to dates, and even more that the first bite hooked you. That soft, naturally sweet flavour is exactly why so many people end up swapping out sugar for them. So glad you found us! :D

Nice and chewy

Not squishy like a medjool date but just as yummy, perfect for a quick in the car snack. No sticky fingers!

Love this description, Katherine! That firmer, chewy bite is exactly why so many people reach for this one on the go. A satisfying snack without the mess is a win in our books. So glad you enjoyed it! :)

FAQs

Head to our FAQs page to find out more.

Are dates actually considered a superfood?

They should be — and we’re making it happen. Dates are rich in fiber, antioxidants, and essential minerals like potassium and magnesium. In fact, just 3 Mejdool dates pack more potassium than a banana. They’re also naturally sweet, energizing, and 100% unprocessed. So yes — dates are a superfood. They just haven’t had the same PR team as avocados (until now).

Are dates good for workouts or active lifestyles?

Absolutely. Dates are a natural source of quick and sustained energy, rich in potassium, fiber, and natural sugars — perfect for a pre- or post-workout snack.

Are dates safe for people with diabetes?

Yes — dates can be safely enjoyed by people with diabetes when eaten in moderation. They have a low to moderate glycemic index (GI) and are rich in fiber, which helps slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream. Because dates contain natural sugars (not added or refined ones), they’re often a better alternative to processed sweets. We recommend enjoying them in small portions and, when possible, pairing them with a source of protein or healthy fat — and as always, checking in with a healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
