The National Center for Palms and Dates: We confirm that the information and video clips circulating on social media that light-colored dates are treated with radiation or laser are incorrect, and we explain that “the color of dates in general is affected by several reasons, the most important of which are the natural and climatic factors of the production areas, such as the percentage of humidity, temperatures, and the nature of the soil.”
