Has Anyone Tried Craisins?

I don't like raisins or cranberries, but I love Craisins. Isn't that weird?

Nope! I'm the same way! I can't stand raisins, (especially cooked into foods), but I love Craisins--straight from the bag, in cookies, even in bread pudding.

I do like cranberry sauce made from fresh cranberries, though.

It is possible that we're both weird, I guess...

I like raisins, but not cranberries by themselves. But I LOVE craisins!! I eat them in oatmeal, cereal, salads, and just all alone. They have regular ones and other flavors like cherry that are really good too.

Wink Re: Has Anyone Tried Craisins?

I love them. But I also like raisins.

In most recipes you can sub craisins for the raisins. You might want to change the spice or flavoring to enhance the finished product.

I've had great sucess using them to cook/bake.
Just remember they are a bit sweeter with a definite tart bite.

An interesting snack if you eat them straight!
