I saw this Sun-Maid raisin ad the other day and I didn't know what it was for because the raisin girl has changed. She is now a "modern" woman, actually she looks like a Barbie avatar with some new implants. I don't know about you, but, when I pick grapes I always put on my modern red bonnet. Her "homey" look is still a challenge to educate women on healthy food choices. (That's "homey", Jon Gosselin, not "homely.") Don't men eat raisins? Maybe the new boobs are for men. Buy some raisins from the hot avatar, men. As for me, I hate raisins, they're just wrinkled skanky grapes, but, I still like the old raisin girl better. Even the familiar sunburst is gone. Now we have pretend nature valley and all I can think of is minimum wage and sun block.

I don't like raisins in anything. I will eat them,by themselves, from the box, but I don't run out & buy them. ever. And I really hate the yellow raisins! Old women cook with them. How about that old timey salad made with shredded carrots and raisins? Yuck! I wouldn't ever taste that. I don't think anybody is really gonna notice this. She does look like a Barbie cartoon now. It's not important to me. I think the California Raisins did more for raisins than anything elese ever did. Who didnt stop & watch them strut to Otis Redding? That was cool stuff!!

Golden raisins come straight from Satan's butthole.
I really don't care all that much for raisins, I will eat them when there in my trail mix or in the occassional oatmeal cookie, but there not something I go out thinking OH MY GOSH im out of raisins really the only time I buy raisins is if Kodes says mom can you buy me some raisins for snack..I have to say I kinda like the old time salad made with the shredded carrots and raisins, of course its not something that I make however if I go to a buffet or something and I see it I will take a tablespoon of it....OOOOOO OOOOO I heard it through the grapevine.

I love raisins (insert lip smacking sound). My fav cookie is oatmeal raisin followed closely by chocolate chip. I could eat raisins by the handful. Never have seen the yellow ones. Of course I don't get out much.
Don't like raisins, never have, never will. I'll eat my grapes straight from the bunch OR crushed, smuched, stomped, strained, drained, aged and put in a bottle with a cork in it.
And people that think giving raisins to little kids is good for them are so wrong. Rots their teeth. Same with those stupid fruit rollups. My kids never ate either and never had a cavity (now in their late 20s). Dentist told me years ago ... don't give it to your kids unless they are going to brush their teeth immediately.
I'm firmly planted in the raisin-haters camp, and the yellow ones were the worst!!!
This reminds me of when they redid the Betty Crocker image. Now it looks vaguely Hispanic. I don't really care what nationality they use to represent products, but why change it? A logo with enhanced boobs is just stupid.

Love raisins, cooked in stuff, not raw. Yellow raisins are called currants, I think. They are packaging dried,red globe grapes, they're big and pretty good eaten out of box. I put them in my last batch of granola, everyone liked them.
Give it 5 years.In the next revamp she'll be spread eagle with Katie Price tits and a bunch of grapes strategically placed in front of her crotch.
Currants are a different fruit. They grow on smaller bushes and come in a variety of colors, too, though not as many as grapes. We used to raise our own (my mom is from Europe and it was kind-of a European thing in the 60's and 70's, not really an American thing). Our favorite blueberry farm grows currants as well. It doesn't grow with vines like grapes.

She needs to fire her stylist too!

OMG LMFAO AT SATANS BUTTHOLE
Hey, I think I'll do them a future raisin girl. What do you think?
Yeah, bring it on! This should be hilarious!
"Golden raisins come straight from Satan's butthole"
ROFLMAO!!!!!!
I hate em. Also the ones that have grit in them. Man I hate munching one something and grinding my molars on some random grit. I hate it with clams and you half expect a gritty one here or there. But a raisin? wth! There is no need for grit in a raisin. Ever.
Satan's butthole is pretty much gold. I'm using it the first opportunity I get.
I think the artist was inspired by Penelope Cruz.
I love raisins, can't understand why so many people hate them
first time I saw that commercial I was like "WOW the Raisin girl is a HOTTIE!" hahaha
Day late and a dollar short on this idea but how about a post on our favorite likes and dislikes (food, that is). I'm always interested is hearing what types of foods people can't stand... as well as the stuff they can't get enough of.
