In the USA Israeli dates are present in NY and NJ Muslim/Arab stores. Some state they are a product of Tunisia though Tunis does not export Medjools, others may even say from Al Quds and also watch for the brand King Soloman. My husband has been in the date biz for many years and has been approached by Israeli vendors offering to change labels/names/locations etc. It is best to buy California or Saudi to be safe. Ask if you are not sure.
