Well, DO you?

I'm a fan. Could put raisins on almost anything. 'Specially those delightful golden ones.

What can I do next?

Moving on to dried grapes.
Damn funny Ephie.

But, yes, I love the little golden ones.
Oh, and dried cherries and cranberries also.

Nope, I hate them. I think it was this joke that really sealed the deal for me:

Why did Sunmaid Raisins go out of business?
The rabbit died.

Of course I like raisins (especially the golden ones). I assumed everyone else did also until I read the answers here. Mamapedia has opened my eyes to so much diversity.

answers from Hartford on

I love raisins. Goldens are the best. My favorite way to have them is in my aunts genuine recipe for Irish Soda Bread. OMG, so delicious. She puts three types of raisins in it.

Raisins are so good for you it's unbelievable. I also love prunes. I could eat a whole bag of them but, well, you know. Ooh, you know what's THE BEST?!?!? SunSweet has these dark chocolate-covered prunes. Heavenly.

answers from Chicago on

I like them if they are baked in breads or cookies. I do not like to eat dried up raisins. They are way too sweet, get stuck in my teeth and I hate getting a stem or hard piece from concentrated sugar. My kids will not touch anything with raisins. I can be evil and put raisins in bread I bake and they won't touch it. Bwahahahahah. I actually get to have some.
Usually when I make something or buy something, it is gone before I get home. Even if I hide it. Like they have radar or something. (But don't ask them to find their socks)

answers from Los Angeles on

I do!!!! I love the golden ones in chicken salad and even by themselves. Unfortunately my daughter won't touch them and makes me pick them out of her food. It seems like the dried fruit of my youth and I can remember eating lunch w/friends and everyone having a little red box of sunmaid raisins, (oh, the good ol' days). ;)

answers from Austin on

I don't really like them , not even in cookies. And then I forget and eat a few. After one or two, I start noticing the stems. And crunchy bits that are probably small seeds. Or sugar crystals if they are kind of dried up.
The golden ones are nicer, but I'd rather have a dried apricot, cranberry, blueberry, cherry, etc.

Yes. I don't eat them alone though. They have to be in Raisin Bran cereal or oatmeal cookies (no chocolate chips!), that's the only way. :)
