I'm obsessed with these cookies from Aldi. They last maybe a few hours in my house. Soft, sweet, better than grandma's and no unnatural crap in them except for this mysterious ingredient: 'date'. What in the world is 'date'? Like ground up dates? Then why not list them as dates? Maybe date sugar? But then it should be listed as such. Tried emailing Aldi to find out what this ingredient is and no response 3 times now. And all 3 varieties of cookies have 'date' listed. Anyone have a clue or know where to find out what exactly date is?
