Why you need a stick in a package with dates and how to make candy from dates Bashny.Net

Dates are advised to eat as a useful and natural substitute for purchased sweets. They can be eaten with a bite to tea or coffee, and you can also make candies from dates, oatmeal and other natural ingredients.

Candies from dates can be bought by weight or choose packaged in the store. Usually in the package you can find an unusual stick with teeth on the end. Many do not know its purpose and think that it is necessary only for aesthetics.
