There are RAISINS in my Muffin!! BLEEECH!

So I finally get around to eating my muffin (I told you that I am a very late breakfast eater ). A low-fat BANANA GRANOLA muffin no less.. and as I'm starting to eat it, I begin to realize that something is not quite right.

What is wrong, you ask? (well maybe you don't ask, but I'm still gonna tell you...)

There are RAISINS IN IT!

BLEEEEEEEEEEECH!

RAISINS in my MUFFIN!!!!!!!

First of all -- where do raisins fit into the concept of a Banana Granola muffin? Bananas? Yes. Granola? Yes!! Raisins? uh .. no!

Secondly, I like raisins very much. They are a delightful snack treat. But I can only eat them on their own, for whatever quirky reason. I cannot STAND RAISINS IN THINGS. E.g., I don't like raisin bread, raisins in cake, raisins in cookies, and most especially I DO NOT LIKE RAISINS in my BANANA GRANOLA muffin!!

Suffice to say, I am disgusted. Raisin infested muffin is now in the garbage, and I am still hungry!!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

OK, this should be nominated for stupidest post of the day......... and I will gladly accept that title

I just needed to 'vent' and my silly coworkers simply cannot empahsize with this type of pain..

Hugs!!

I hate raisins. I think it was in the movie 'Benny and June' where she says that 'Raisins are depressing. They are just shriveled up grapes.' Couldn't agree more!!!!

My husband would agree. he won't eat them plain either. he says they're 'old fruit'.

Not that he eats ' new fruit' either.

Hey, I don't like the Raisin slagging going on on this board today

Besides being a delicious and nutritious snack, they can also play the saxaphone and sing Motown with the best of 'em.

Long live the RAISINS!!!!

Felicai! I totally can relate. Rasisns IN stuff are yucky & mushy! I hate when I am so excited to eat somethign & it is wrecked !

Exactly Heather! You verbalized what I could not say. I mean, you totally ruin BOTH items when you put raisins into them. Even when you take the raisins out , their gooey remnants are left in the muffin. And the raisins themselves are just hideously gross after being baked into a muffin, cake or bread.

Sometimes I think I'm the only one with strange eating habits ... good to know I'm not alone !

You'd be surpised. A lot of people agree with me on that one, when I think they are going to think I am nuts.
It's not as weird as my mom's ' I like tomatoes on sandwhiches, but not in salads'
??? I'm still trying to figure that one out!

Now that is funny. I'm actually the exact opposite. I like tomatoes in salads, but cannot STAND tomatoes on a sandwich. Don't like lettuce on a sandwich either, but love salads

OK , I am officialy weird

My mom will eat tomatos cooked, but is digusted by raw ones!!! She still is shocked when she sees me with a tomato slice on my sandwich. I guess she thought she raised me better!!!!

I'm the same there, can eat them cooked, on pizza, in tacos, in sandwiches, but not by themselves or in a salad...and cherry tomatos?

That' show my husband is. they are 'slimy' raw. Acttaully, he doesn't realy like them cooked,- just the sauce, it can't be chunky sauce.

And I understand that look from the mother. . . I get that when I eat shrimp. . .

You raise a very good point. And truly, as much as my post was originally intended to be funny , all kidding aside it is really crummy that the raisins were in the muffin in the first place. I always think the same about nuts and the severe allergic reactions some people have towards them

I always get my stuff from this place and this was the first time such a 'no-no' occurred, so it might have been mismarked (though it was definitely banana and granola, so I still cannot figure out how the raisins turned up in there )

Bring it home, I'll eat anything.
