That would make my day!  Looks delicious.

Anyone who posts those mouth watering photos this time of year should be punished by having to send at least 5 figs to each forum member. ;-))

Nice! I bought the same black mission figs a few weeks ago and, while finishing the crunchy figs, decided to germinate them.
I have 3 seedlings now! I will take a photo tomorrow morning and post it, they are outside since the very beginning, in a seedling tray.

It was very popular in the countryside all over both Mediterranean banks to have one or two dry figs smeared with olive oil every morning before breakfast.

Nice breakfast Figs4Life...my mouth is watering !!     :)  :)

The Trader Joe's near me only has ancient dry figs.  Yours look much better.
