Pies don't have a uniform texture. All that is required is a lower crust and baking. Thus pizza is a pie, as is quiche. And oatmeal raisin cookies are just so sad. Mostly because the raisins are wretched teases. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will probably never catch up to the end of the thread before it dies, but at least there sure are some good eats on the way. 4 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They didn't even succeed at being a succulent snack. They most certainly didn't succeed at becoming wine. They're the husks of the lowest tier of grapedom. 1 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, they do grow tons and tons of grapes just so they can make raisins out of them. To each his own. But for me Oatmeal Raisin Cookies rate at least a Nom - as long as they are thick and chewy.

GEM The oatmeal part of the cookie I thoroughly enjoy. Just not the raisin part. If the oatmeal cookie gets something added, it is either dark chocolate or butterscotch chips. Raisins.... are begrudgingly good in salads. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is the only thing I've used them in, and it is a coin flip between that and the chocolate. Butterscotch chips are weird. What bothers me is the icky ingredients typically. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raisins do not belong in cookies; they are liars and deceivers tricking people into thinking of chocolate. Were you the one I offered a batch of chocolate chip cookies with a single raisin thrown into the mix? 2 7 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
