The worst thing ever

[dramamama611]

Oh, Wynbish, that looks AND sounds disgusting. {shudder}

[Kad]

This thread is whimsical.

[Calvin]

Here's a recipe everyone should try:
So simple!

[Wynbish]

I want my raisins singin' fierce.

[doodlenyc]

Calvin...that is BLARGHY!

[Calvin]

Haha, I came across that years ago when I was going through recipes. I don't know what suprises me more -- that it's still up on that site after 7-8 years or that people actually have tried it.

[themysteriousgrowl]

Calvin, I am 100% on board with your raisin/Dorito taco.

[Kad]

At least there's no raisins in it.

[themysteriousgrowl]

Ah, liaisons...


Now, where was I? Where was I?


Oh, yes...

[doodlenyc]

I sure as eff would never call raisins a "sumptuous feast" Hermione!

[SNAFU]

Ever since that face cream commercial in the 1960s where they put a prune into it and left it there for awhile and it plumped back up, I cannot look at a dry piece of fruit again!

[PalJoey]

I've long maintained that Cinnamon-Raisin Bagels were anti-Semitic.

[Wynbish]

Dried tomatoes?

[dramamama611]

I love figs. And sun-dried tomatoes.

Ya'll are just making me hungry. (Except for the lobster recipe.)

[Mister Matt]

Are those Angela Lansbury's ovaries?

[Kad]

Yes, they are. She had more than two.

[themysteriousgrowl]

Ya'll are just making me hungry. (Except for the lobster recipe.)

[TheatreDiva90016]

I like raisins on my Lime Jello Marshmallow Cottage Cheese Surprise.

[Jordan Catalano]

Diva, the only thing that could make that recipe more disgusting would be adding solid fart crystals to it.

[JoeKv99]

Raisins DO NOT belong in Jello. Grapes are only allowed as nipples in Jello-mold breasts.

[Wynbish]

Jordan, that's the surprise.

[TheatreDiva90016]

It's so good that there is a song about it!

[Calvin]

Here's a recipe from Mama Limbuagh, which combines zesty Miracle Whip, savory olives, rich cream cheese and scrumptious lime jello.
To quote Tom Wolfe -- mmmmmmmmmmmm!

[EricMontreal22]

And here I always thought I was alone in my hatred for raisins ruining an otherwise fine piece of food. As a huge fan of apple strudel, I'm always horrified to slice into it and find raisins.

(That Miracle Whip/olive dish on the other hands sounds amazing...)

[After Eight]

I share Eric's dislike for raisins in apple strudel.

I don't like them in rice pudding, either.

But raisin walnut bread is quite good, particularly if you have golden raisins.

As for figs, the fresh ones are delicious. And fig jam is wonderful on a cracker with Roquefort or Stilton. So is cherry jam.

[Jane2]

Haha, this thread is great!

But getting quite serious about the serious topic of raisin preference-I like a nice raisin in my slaw, and on the topic of beans-REAL chili has no beans! I hate chili with beans!
