    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.

      While I certainly do like chocolate chip cookies, where cinnamon buns are concerned, I don’t want to replace the raisins with anything. I’ll pick them out and eat just the cinnamon bun. So it’s definitely the raisins, with their unquenchable evil.

      Nah, I really dislike raisins and, despite liking chocolate, I am not a super chocolate lover.

      Not much of a sweet tooth at all.

      I do love fruits though, but am not a huge fan of dried fruit which is what raisins are.

      I feel like raisins are always in the wrong place, and for everyone this place is different. But when they are in the wrong place, you immediately notice and and go “WHYYY”. Hence raisins bad. Also chocolate sucks.
