When I was a walking hard on of a 13 year old sex maniac I had a buddy named Junior Raisin. He had a sister named Elanor who was a 22 year old honey haired vixen with a rack so fullsome and quivery i felt hypnotized by her. She loved to walk around the house in a see through nightgown and torture me till my testicles throbbed from unrequited love. One day I couldn't stand it and I sqeezed them and buried my head in them and slobbered all over her taut nipples. Her father walked in and kicked me in the grapes. It was worth it.

They are hazardous to dogs. My dog loves fruit and vegetables and the vet said she could have anything but grapes and raisins.

Raisins are dried grapes. They are produced in many regions of the world, such as the United States, Australia, Chile, Argentina, Mexico, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Togo, Jamaica, and South Africa. Raisins may be eaten raw or used in cooking and baking.
The word raisin takes origin from the Latin word racemus, "a bunch of grapes". The origin of the Latin word is unclear.
Varieties
Raisin varieties depend on the type of grape used. Seedless varieties include Thompson Seedless ( Sultana ) and Flame. Raisins are typically sun-dried, but may also be "water-dipped", or dehydrated. "Golden raisins" are made from Thompsons, treated with Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) , and flame dried to give them their characteristic color. A particular variety of seedless grape, the Black Corinth, is also sun dried to produce Zante currants, mini raisins that are much darker in color and have a tart, tangy flavour. Several varieties of raisins are produced in Asia and are only available at ethnic grocers. Green raisins are produced in Iran. Raisins in a variety of colors (green, black, white) and sizes are also produced in India.
Nutritional value
Raisins are about 60% sugars by weight, most of which is fructose. Raisins are also high in antioxidants, and are comparable to prunes and apricots in this regard.
The natural sugar in raisins crystallizes during the drying processRaisins are sweet due to their high concentration of sugars. If they are stored for a long period, the sugar inside the fruit crystallizes. This makes the fruit gritty, but does not affect its usability. To de-crystalize raisins, they can be soaked in liquid (alcohol, fruit juice, or boiling water) for a short period, dissolving the sugar.
The Victorian parlour game called Snap-dragon involved raisins being plucked from a bowl of burning brandy.

They're sweetened dried grapes.
Used in bakeries, desserts, and even as a nutritional snack. ^_^

Don't believe anyone who tells you they're grapes. They're really just dead flies, but they are yummy though.
