    You know, I’ve never seen raisins in inappropriate places except as a joke about white people. Is it a regional thing?

      I think (think, not know) that they are in recipes here because a lot of our Indian food is by way of England’s Indian restaurants, which are sort of a cuisine unto themselves. So for all I know they could have started as a joke, but it’s persisted if so. Someone must like them.
