For a breakfast that truly satisfies and has 3 Carbohydrate Choices, enjoy a warm muffin with scrambled eggs and a serving of fresh fruit.

Iraq is the world's largest producer of dates. A typical mature date tree produces 200 to 300 pounds of fruit each year.

I traditionally make baked goods to bring with when my family goes up to the resort, and I picked these as my father's treat because he likes dates (and bread). I tried some and found it to be a little bitter; however up at the cabin I heated one in the microwave, buttered it, and found out they can taste quite good. I would not recommend them unless you like dates, as many other muffins are much better, but they weren't half bad.
