Dates are a delicious and heathy sweet treat if need one. Great source of fiber. The whole ones with the pits in them are the tastiest.

Asparagus should never be boiled. Steamed or grilled.

They are FINE when consumed as a treat. In fact, better than fine if you want a taste of something sweet. People who condemn fruit as being unhealthy because of the naturally occurring sugars are both poorly educated and insufferable. Yes, eat grates, dates, bananas, and other fruit. You'll be fine.

Dates are actually GOOD for you. They have a lot of fiber and minerals. They do not spike blood sugar. In fact, there are studies that they can actually be beneficial to diabetic patients; lowers fasting glucose in some cases, had beneficial or neutral effect on subjects’ blood sugar levels. Now- you shouldn’t eat a box of them. But 1-2 dates daily as a treat is more than fine, actually good for you. A way better option than a cookie or candy if you are craving sweet

Most people can’t eat an entire cup of dates at once, personally it’s one or maybe two and I’m OverThem.

A cup of dates is about 5 or 6 dates tops. A lot of people are capable of eating a lot more than that.

Because it is ruined that way and all the nutrients are lost. Really I can't believe I am having to explain this to people. Where did you grow up, under a rock in Kentucky?
