Why does everyone seam to hate raisins (and olives)

They are fucking delicious

[–] droans@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I love oatmeal raisin cookies and I'm tired of pretending I don't.

Raisins are delicious and most cookies would be improved with oatmeal.

Oatmeal raisin cookies are one of my favorites! I don't bake them often because I eat way too many cookies when I do.

People get angry with me for saying that oatmeal raisin is better than chocolate chip.

Have you ever tried aging the dough in the fridge for a few days? It makes the oatmeal softer while the outside gets crisp.

I love oatmeal raisin cookies, hold or majorly reduce the raisins. Cookie part tastes great because oatmeal is awesome.

Nah, don't mix them up, olives are great, especially well sourced ones. Raisins are just an unpleasant surprise, every time.

I think y'all just ate some shitty raisins once and now hate them forever

What even is a good raisin? A grape?

[–] HotDogFingies@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Grapes are so much better than raisins, holy shit. And so god damn good with cheese.

[–] stolid_agnostic@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Wait does it bother you to find raisins in food?

Literally two ingredients common in saltenas.

[–] poinck@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, I like olives.

[–] AdlachGyfiawn@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Olives are great. Raisins taste how old people smell.

[–] HotDogFingies@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

People hate raisins because they're not chocolate. I enjoy G.O.R.P. on occasion, but I don't eat trail mix for the raisins. I leave most of them behind. They can be a bit much. Ratio of anything to raisin needs to be right. One raisin to five to ten of anything else, otherwise they're just overwhelming.

Olives, on the other hand, are fucking delicious. Hell yeah. Bathe me in their brine-rich kisses.

Because food preferences are now memes.

[–] HotDogFingies@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I like food. I like memes. I don't hate this.

[–] AyuTsukasa@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well for me it's because grapes are my favorite fruit so it's like everything I love about a grape is sucked out of it.
