Not a fan. The dates were too sweet and the bacon was too salty.

These were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less bacon next time.

Easy to make and delicious. I used toothpicks instead of skewers and they worked just fine.

These were a hit at my party! I used a variety of dates, including Medjool, Deglet Noor, and Halawi, and they were all delicious. The salty bacon and the sweet dates were a perfect combination. I will definitely be making these again.
