Settle a debate on brownies

[Godfather]

Ok settle a debate my wife and I are having.

Do 'people' (being you) like brownies with raisins in them? :-k

Simple question. You don't have to pick one over the other for life or anything dramatic like that... just: would you happily eat a brownie with raisins in it? Or do you not like them in brownies?

[RBP]

Do I like them and would I eat them are 2 different choices.

Would I eat one? Yes. Do I like them? Totally depends on the brownie.

It's like asking if I'd let a fat chick blow me.

[RBP]

I think he posted this as fodder for anger fucking. I feel used.

:lol: I can't argue with that logic. I also can't edit the poll just to say 'Yes, I like them' :lol:

Who the fuck would ruin brownies by putting raisins in them? :-s

[Muddy]

I have never heard of doing that until this thread.

Yes raisins in brownies would ruin the brownie goodness.

:hand:

Notice he didn't deny my angry fucking theory? :rolleyes:

The first time I heard my wife swear was when I offered her some Safeway Bran Muffin muffins. She took the first bite and said "EW! Fuckin' raisins!!!" #keeper

Brownies ≠ Raisins but the principle applies...

Raisins have their place, but definitely not in brownies. Peanuts, yes. Chocolate chips, sure. Hell, I've had a few with gooey caramel inside that were pretty damn good. But raisins? In a brownie? Sacrilege.

Raisins have their place....

It's called the trash can.

No you missed my intent.

If the cookies say 'oatmeal raisin' and there are no raisins in them...we got a lawsuit now :lol:

[deebakes]

Raisins don't belong in dessert. They just don't. Some of you carrot cake or oatmeal cookie fans may disagree, but for me, a dessert experience is better without them. Raisins taste like blah to start with, the texture is downright weird and, lets be honest, they look like little turds. I'm cool with them on the rare occasion, like in a broccoli salad or when they come in other, better forms: grapes or wine, but keep those little rug-rats away from my dessert!

Raisinettes <gag>. Don't even get me started. The only way I'd eat those is if someone paid me to. Why would anyone spend good money on those over literally any other movie candy? Honestly! Who are these Raisinette connoisseurs anyways? Grandmas? Don't answer that.

This rant stemmed from a bread pudding dessert that was on the menu while I was dinning with my family. It was their "special of the day" and it definitely had my attention until the waiter read the description. As I recall, my dad and I made "stinky-faces" at each other after the R-word was dropped. Bad, very bad.

And this concludes my raisin rant. Sorry I'm not sorry.
