How does everyone feel about raisins, I know they have a lot of calories but they are good for you right?

    high in calories and sugar, but still better than a candy bar. I enjoy them in moderation.

    Love to eat it but from a dieters standpoint it's a pointless fruit to eat.

    I have 30g of them everyday on my oatmeal in the morning. Contains more calories than the oatmeal but if it fits into my daily calories and stops me adding artificial sweeteners, I don't mind. (:

    whenever i eat raisins, i find it's so hard to not go over a sensible portion. for the calories, the pleasure of eating them is over too quickly....i always end up wishing i'd eaten fresh or frozen grapes instead!
