10 Feb 06 - 01:59 AM (#1665810) Subject: RE: BS: Dates, Nuts, and Figs From: Little Robyn We have a fig tree and when the fruit is ripe there's nothing better. Really soft to touch, green on the outside but red on the inside and they taste wonderful - almost like eating strawberry jam. They'll be ready in a couple of months. I can't wait. Robyn |

10 Feb 06 - 06:19 AM (#1665866) Subject: RE: BS: Dates, Nuts, and Figs From: RangerSteve Dates are great as an ingredient in baked goods, but are inedible all by themselves. They are in the same food group as fruitcakes, something you buy in bulk to send to people on Christmas because you can't be bothered with shopping for individual gifts. Figs are better, especially as Newtons, but the seeds get caught in your teeth. Nuts - especially almonds, filberts, walnuts and pecans are fine, but not brazil nuts, which taste like dirt. |

10 Feb 06 - 11:13 PM (#1666577) Subject: RE: BS: Dates, Nuts, and Figs From: Little Hawk Fresh figs off the tree are incredible. Totally different from the dried ones, they have a delicate and sweet flavor that can hardly be beat. When it comes to dates, Medjool are the kings. For nuts I think I like fresh raw almonds the best. All nuts are way better without salt (once you get used to the idea), and way better for you that way too. |

10 Feb 06 - 11:35 PM (#1666599) Subject: RE: BS: Dates, Nuts, and Figs From: Little Hawk Some people are driven nuts or are sent prematurely into the grave BY their medications. I've known a few like that. My recommendation: take no medication at all if you can possibly avoid it, always eat a good diet, get fresh air and exercise, and drink plenty of clean water. And find something productive to do that you like doing. You will probably never need much, if any, medication. |
