(Fig, Kalamata, dried) Kalamata figs come from the Southwestern part of
Greece. They are most often found in "wheels" or "trays". We suggest that you
purchase dried figs without sorbate, as we find it changes the flavor. Sorbate
is used to keep the figs soft and to prevent them from "sugaring". We believe
that these Kalamata figs are the best eating of the dried figs. They are great
for snacks. See the nutritional chart below.

The
above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31):
'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every
tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the
earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that
has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all
that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
