Why do people hate raisins? They're chewy little sugar bombs. What's not to like?
Same this comic does not resonate
I have found my kin.
I love raisins by themselves, or sometimes in food like Tagine
Raisins in baking are almost always a disappointment
Exactly. I love raisins in trail mix, but any cooked or baked raisins are disgusting little bugs that pop in your mouth when you bite down on them and omg it makes me wanna hurl just thinking about it
Raisins are fine until you eat a cookie expecting chocolate chips and get a raisins instead.
Chocolate chips are fine until you eat a cookie expecting raisins and get chocolate chips instead.
To the American palate natural sugars taste like sour lemons. The rest of the world goes crazy for sultanas or raisins in things because they are such a sweet little surprise. To Americans raised on a steady diet of factory brewed high fructose corn syrup, they seem to offend and overwhelm their senses.
I hear so much raisin hate on American podcasts etc. I'll never understand it.
I'm from Europe and I don't like raisins. 🤷♂️
You're not far wrong, but the corollary is it's really hard to avoid unless you're fairly nutrition aware. After moving away I lost several kilo in a year by accident. Eating normal food and living someplace walkable does a lot.

Someone gave out little boxes of raisins on Halloween. I poured them into my mouth. They had worms in them. To this day I'm suspicious of raisins.
Protein candy
Damn it, man! I just bought a big pack of those little boxes of raisins for my toddler yesterday. Now I'm gonna remember this and instinctively check the damn box before I give them to her. Thanks a lot!!
Nah your previous piece of candy had a powerful hallucinogen in it.
They look and feel like I'm eating little roaches embedded in my food.
That just makes them better! Like when you eat lo mein and get to pretend the pieces of cabbage are little grubs. It's the best part!
I love raisins on their own. And in raisin brand for some reason. But I strongly dislike their texture in baked goods such as cinnamon buns or cookies.
For me it's the texture that causes issues. I love grapes, but dry them out and suddenly they make me nauseous.
I love raisins, especially in cinnamon rolls and carrot cake!
Carrot cake should be called something else if it doesn’t have raisins or currants in it. They are so damn good.
I love raisins. Hmm, I, probably, will buy them when my shift end
Hey, people that hate raisins, I'm curious how you feel about fresh grapes. Is this an issue with the whole thing, or just dried fruit?
Raisins are delicious btw I could eat golden raisins in particular by the fistfull
Raisins in particular have a mouthfeel like bugs for me. Fresh grapes are mid but nice when it's hot out. I like dried versions of most fruits I like the fresh version of
I'm not the biggest fan of raisins. Definitely wouldn't put them in any pantries.
Fresh grapes are amazing.
Not really big on dry fruit. Haven't really been that adventurous with that stuff though.
I think raisins in pantries is more about a random sour or texture rather than the actual raisin being bad tasting.
A cinnamon roll tastes amazing without raisins. Putting sour chewy landmines in it does not make it any better.
I have a hypothesis that all the raisin haters out there are super chocolate lovers. And they are just mad that it’s raisins and not chocolate. I’m not saying all chocolate lovers are raisin haters, but that all raisin haters are chocolate lovers.
Last I checked raisins aren’t harvested with slave labor and deforestation, learn to enjoy raisins they are amazing
One of my absolute favourite candy that's common in Germany is raisins in chocolate:
This one even says "Jeden Tag" ("every day") on the packing!
I can add my sample size of one to your research. I don’t mind raisins but I love chocolate. Chocolate covered raisins are acceptable, for instance. The disappointment is what really leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
To add my sample to your research, I absolutely love both chocolate and raisins...
They tell you that having a kid changes you but I was not prepared to freaking love raisins from literally one day to the next. Ever since I popped out that kid I fucking love raisins. Didn't like them in pregnancy, didn't like them before, one day plopp and goddamn raisins are the best.
Also happened with nuts and marzipan.
I don't mind raisins. I typically don't seek them out but for the most part they're a happy surprise.
I must state that raisins in cereal is a terrible fucking idea. They get hard and gummy.
FFS, what a bunch of babies.
According to the webcomic Adventures of God, there is a special place in hell for people who give out raisins instead of candy on Halloween
No no, you put one raisin in, just to fuck with somebody.
Never go to a Christmas Eve in Brazil. People put raisins on everything! (And I love it!)
i like raisins
worse then chocolate chips but still prety decent
Used to not like them as a kid. But love them as an adult
I had to get out of bed and show this to my husband who hates raisins in cinnamon rolls. Personally I love them so if I don’t want to share…😜
Raisers are fine on their own but I don’t want that change in consistency when I’m eating cinnamon rolls, cookies, whatever. Also expectations are big, have you ever taken a sip of a drink that is different than what you thought? Usually not a pleasant experience
The real crime is the cum on the top.
Am I the only one who thought the cream was going to be... geez with j?
Jizz... you're allowed to spell it out.
Nah , his mom conducts surprise inspections.
Joke's on him, I like raisins and any dried fruit. Crystalized fruit, however.
