Date fruits that my father's friend brought back from abroad when I was young - especially from Saudi Arabia
I remember them by their intensely sweet taste, so sweet that it even felt bitter.
It was truly like the saying "eating one piece of date and going into a coma!! Why? Because it's so sweet!!".
That was exactly the kind of taste that fits this description.
I was shocked by the taste - the dark liquid bubbling with strong carbonation and the sweetness and fragrance when swallowing a sip
I think it tastes comparable to 'Coca-Cola,' which is like 'hellish holy water' brought from hell by Satan himself,
Anyway,
these days, you can easily find dates in large marts,
and it seems there are quite a few varieties.
Most of what you can taste in Korea is a variety called 'Deglet Noor,' and you can often see them in places like Itaewon Islamic Street, but...
Anyway, among various energy supplements like energy gels, yokan, Haribo gummies (...),
Since dates are said to have great benefits, if we solve the portability issue well, they could be a good energy source.
In fact, chocolate melts in heat and humidity, storage is not easy, packaging disposal, contamination on clothes, etc.
I don't think it's suitable food for cycling.
Bananas are good too, but I think dates are excellent in terms of portability and convenience.
(I bought two packs of dates at Emart today...)
Since they are said to have high potassium content, those with kidney problems should consult with a doctor before consumption....
It can be problematic.
