1.0 out of 5 stars SCAM November 15, 2011
By Shelly
Amazon Verified Purchase
The label on-line clearly shows the ingredients as being strictly dates. But the syrup arrived and the label is completely different. The item includes SUGAR!! Hello!?! What is the point of that? Date syrup is supposed to be an alternative to sugar. I think it is ridiculous Amazon lets this happen. And because it is a grocery item I cannot return it. What a waste.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not real date molasses! October 12, 2011
By neartheredrocks
Amazon Verified Purchase
According to Amazon's product description (as of 10/12/2011) this molasses has only one ingredient: dates. However, according to the label it is made from "concentrated date juice, sugar, water, citric acid" (see also the picture of the label with the ingredients that I uploaded). I did not want to buy a sugar sirup with some concentrated date juice in it, I wanted to buy a natural product made 100 % from dates. I will return this product.
PS: Once again I can only praise Amazon. The product is not returnable through the online system. But when I called and explained the situation I got immediately offered a refund. I love to buy from Amazon!

1.0 out of 5 stars Still has sugar in it
I took a chance on ordering this, based on the label from 11/2011, despite the reviews that indicate it has sugar in it. It *still* has sugar as an ingredient. I'm returning.
