What it is
Raisins are dried grapes. They are made by drying whole grapes, either in the sun or in mechanical dehydrators. This process concentrates their natural sugars and flavors.
Why it's used
Raisins are often added to baked goods like cookies, muffins, and bread for sweetness and texture. They are also found in snack mixes, cereals, and as a topping for yogurt and oatmeal. Manufacturers use them as a natural sweetener and to add a chewy texture.
Health notes
Raisins are a source of dietary fiber, potassium, and antioxidants. The FDA has not set specific upper intake levels for raisins. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated raisins and found them to be safe for consumption. Due to their natural sugar content, moderation is often advised as part of a balanced diet.
Allergen info
Raisins are not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
