I didn't think so, but there they are - raisins in the carrot cake I bought at lunchtime. Now I have to pick the little [] out. I hate raisins. Dammit.
no. it's not that i don't like raisins, but that's not how grandma used to make it.

No. Raisins do NOT belong in carrot cake. However, cream cheese icing on carrot cake is the shiznitz.
No. They belong in little red boxes, silly!
What's not to like about a shirveled up grape?
the only place raisins belong is in a box that has Sun-Maid written on it.
carrot cake = :barf:
Well, let me just say that that was a crappy way to eat a piece of cake. One little sliver at a time. Not at all satisfying. The icing was good, but not that good because they didn't really slather it on.

I don't usually get cake, but next time I do I'll go German Chocolate. Oh yeah.
^and hopefully they won't sneak raisins into it! that's just ick to think about.
It is "ick" to think about. Yet, I do enjoy a raisinette now and then. go figure.
Mmmm. German chocolate. Best cake ever. At least the ones my Mom makes.
Did the raisins have legs?
Raisins definitely have a place in carrot cake!
What's wrong with you people? Big Grin
"Do the raisins have large talons?"
No. No more than carrots belong in a rum/raisin cake.

Not that there's anything wrong w/ that mind you. :icon12:
Maybe it was a carrot-raisin salad cake.
Heck yes they belong. A carrot cake that does weigh 10 pounds is not done right.
Far as I can tell, raisins belong in three places: Raisin Bran, little red boxes, and Hell.
Well, for that matter I don't think carrots belong in cake.:throwup:
Vid is correct, carrots do not belong in cake.
Do chickens belong in a sandwich?
Depends upon the bakery's Health Dept score. Those little legs tend to dissolve in a commercial mixer and a hot oven. Oh well.... it is protein.

Didn't know I had already weighed in on this. Actually I love carrot cake. I don't mind a few raisins in it along with, say, walnuts too. If they're not in it, that's fine too.
^ loller

Somehow I think my brain/eyes are starting to see you two as one poster or something....
