If raisins went extinct tomorrow the world would be a better place.

I actually like Raisins straight from the little boxes. But I hate them in baked goods.

I concur and would like to add coconut to the list of things that should never be used in baked goods.

I'm the opposite. I can't stand them straight but I'm okay with them in cookies, raisin bran cereal, etc.

One thing you can purchase at Graceland is the recipe Elvis's mom used to bake his favorite coconut cake. It was the only thing I bought when we went on the tour. It is delicious and worth overdosing for.
