Customer Reviews
Sweet and fresh
You know when you have a box of raisins and they sometimes stick together and turn hard? This is not what you will find in this bag. It is fresh, it is sweet and it is good!
Great taste, no surprise ingredients
These raisins were great. They have a long shelf life, taste great, and there weren't any surprise ingredients when I checked the label or the packages.
A Basket of Grapes in a Bag
We like raisins (Sun Maid Raisins, 12-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6)), and if you knew how many we eat, you would be shocked. We eat them on our cold cereal, in our oatmeal, mixed with almonds, stirred up with peanut butter, and by themselves.
They are good to eat and good for people. They are pure food . . . "grapes and sunshine" Sun-Maid calls them. They are made in California's San Joaquin Valley from Thompson Seedless grapes. One pound of raisins is 4 ½ pounds of fresh grapes. The hot summer sun makes the grapes sweet and juicy.
In addition to snacking on raisins, we like to cook with them.
Here's a classic recipe using raisins. My sister Ruth won a prize with it in a cooking show, and she shared it with permission in Flavored with Love: Mary Lou's Family and Friends Can Cook.
Ruth's Prize-Winning Broccoli Salad
4 cups broccoli
½ cup raisins
½ cup onion
½ cup nuts
½ cup celery
½ cup real bacon bits
½ cup light mayonnaise
½ cup sugar
¼ cup vinegar (apple cider or white)
Mix the first 6 ingredients. Make a sauce out of the mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar. Pour the sauce over the salad. Toss and chill.
Lately we are paying more attention to nutrition. Raisns have 130 calories in a 1/4 cup serving. There are condensed food. They contain no fat. They have natural sugar with a large carbohydrate load. One serving has almost no sodium but 310 mg potassium. Diabetics and renal patients should consult with their dieticians before including raisins in their diets.
I hope you enjoy Ruth's recipe and find this review helpful.
