I like raisins, but not in cookies, cakes, or candy. A great snack is raisins mixed with salted pecans, 50/50. The sweetness of the raisins is balanced by the lightly salted pecans.
Gotta agree with the coyote on this one! Although when I was a kid, I DID like raisins. Now the only time I like them is in our Christmas plum pudding.
I like raisins, but they’re not a legitimate substitute for candy. Similarly, while I do like oatmeal raisin cookies, I’m not sure I ever picked one up without having mistaken it for a chocolate chip cookie — and if you were expecting a chocolate chip cookie, an oatmeal raisin cookie is really a disappointment.

One: Good one!
Two: Ever try getting raisins unstuck from between your teeth? Worse than caramel.

As I have said before, “Raisins are what you give out on Halloween if you hate children.”

Grew up in the “Raisin Capital of the World” – Fresno. Raisins like the grapes they came from are basically sugar. Always like raisins-raisin bread.

I am 100% with Winslow on this one. Raisins are evil. Peel the shell off a June bug and there’s your raisin.

Dried fruit is candy. Pretty much the same sugar concentration.

Always check the raisins in your oatmeal to see if they’re moving!

A handful of raisins a day not only tastes good but will help your body to something I cannot mention on GoComics without getting banned.

Back in the day brewers would put a few raisins in the bottle when they bottled the freshly brewed beer. This was to add sugar and help carbonation.

Chocolate covered raisins = the best of both worlds.
