I just ate a whole loaf of Raisin Bread

You type fat, OP.

Toasted with cream cheese?

I've done this before, too, OP. I had to quit buying it for that very reason.

I do the same thing OP. And to make it worse, I slather it with butter. I think they bake cocaine into it.

It's good for you, so don't fret.

OP, you just described my childhood and my addiction to raisin bread. I used to spread a ton of butter like r4...even better put in the toaster... Now I want to buy a loaf. My brand was Pepperidge Farm...

I hate you all for bringing up one of my repressed fat person fantasies.. I've been thin for decades, but he's in here, and you've woken him up. Fatty wants 2 loaves now.

[quote] I think they bake cocaine into it.

There is something addictive about it. It's the only food I do this with.

The only food? Fuck! I have a whole list that I go ape shit over. I refrain from buying from that list and avoid it.

Ben, we’ve talked about what leads to adult onset carb face!

...but why?

Raisin bread is highly underrated these days.

It’s only edible toasted with butter

It makes great bread pudding too. Just let it dry out.

Oh, I remember when granny and I would sit and eat raisin bread by the hearth after taking the carriage back from Sylertown. Back then, 47% of the raisins were dead flies. Granny and I would play a game to see who could get the most flies stuck in their teeth.

Thanks for evoking that lovely memory.

R7 again, typing with greasy finger from the Irish butter I slathered on the toast. I really hate you, OP. It was so delicious, but I must have gained some self-control, but I did have 4 pieces, including both of the ends, which are my favorite.

Ohhhh, the caramelized raisins that turn to jam, and the golden pools of melted butter in the crannies where the raisins were.

Shameless product shilling.

yasssss THE ENDS r16!

R7 I feel like that is all I have done to get through this damn pandemic. Eat delicious things and lots of it. I give myself permission by saying, "it's a pandemic, whatever it takes to get you through is fine". I reached a new level yesterday when discovered that Cutwater Mai Tais in a can are not bad all. Who the fuck drinks Mai Tais much less from a can? Apparently, I do.

I would eat a whole loaf of it if it came with frosting.

After spreading butter on the toast, add some honey and cinnamon too! Sinful!

R19, I had never heard of Mai Tais in a can; I have never enjoyed Mai Tais; now all I want is a Mai Tai in a can!

Nummies!

r7 reporting I tried to eat just 2 pieces for breakfast, ate 2 more, and one more. I am now thinking about baking today, I have cinnamon and raisins.

I feel like my partner will be performing this scene from the Simpsons, except, instead of fishing, he's going to have to break down over my baking. Thanks DL, he likes me a little fat, so maybe it will all work out.

I almost bought a loaf this evening while waiting for my cold cuts in the Italian butcher. Damn you, OP. Never in a million years would I have thought of buying a loaf. I haven't had a slice since I was about 10. I resisted the temptation and focused on the hot counter guys.

My grandmother loves Raisin bread. She always has whoever's doing her grocery shopping buy her two loafs.

I think I might start buying some for myself.

Yet, Op

toasted and slathered with apple butter or used to make grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwiches

I loved this stuff as a kid. With butter, with cream cheese, with or without cinnamon sugar sprinkled atop ...

I'm too afraid to buy it as an adult, because I would go hog-wild.

Another week, another food gorging, fat ho.

It's getting repetitive now though.

Get your ass to the nearest fat farm...ASAP!

OP, etc...I gave in when I was in Walmart buying Brasso to clean an old candelabrum (probably the gayest, most budget-friendly statement ever), and I went over to look at the Sun-Maid Raisin Bread. There wasn't even a price for it on the shelf, but I bought it for kicks. $3.48, and I'll save it for later. By "later," around 2AM when I'm rewatching 'Dallas' on Amazon Prime and will most likely devour the whole loaf. Perhaps this is a rite of passage for DL members?

Id rather have this than a proper dessert

Raisin bread grilled cheese ❤️ would be the death of me!

May I save you from this death?

It’s seems like it’s a very grandma food. My grandmother was the one who introduced it to me and always had it around

The holy grail of raisin breads, Panettone, is the only thing more addictive.

Ok, now we’re talking R27 the rest of you can keep your raisin bread. Panettone toasted and slathered with butter is SO much better.

OP - I saw this at the grocery store yesterday and had to buy it after reading your thread. Thanks for the extra calories, you fat bitch! ❤️

Raisin Bread toast and butter...a couple pieces is NEVER enough. Even the crusts are great!

Oh my god I haven’t thought about raisin bread in years, and now I desperately want some. My mother made delicious raisin bread, with a confectioners sugar glaze. Served warm with fresh butter, so good....

OP, my undying respect.

It's one of those "everything comes in a single-serving container" foods.

I do not gain weight eating 1 or 2 slices a day of this organic raisin bread available in most grocery stores. It makes amazing toast, even if frozen.

R37 = Thread Hijacker! This thread is about, and only about. Raisin Bread. Start your own damn panettone thread!! FF!

I ate a bunch of golden raisins because of this stupid thread today.

Raisin bread French toast is my favorite.

If you toast it and dump butter on it, it's amazing.

YOLO, girl.

BREAD!!!

R32, that is one of the most DL posts, ever. This is why I love DL.

If I get a bad craving like that, I buy a couple of raisin bagels from the bakery area of my local supermarket. (Those suckers are huge, so one or two is enough.) I also buy the whipped Philadelphia cream cheese. I toast the bagel and spread the whipped cream cheese on top. Butter would also work. Hits the spot.

Raisins ruin everything. You must be fat to eat a whole loaf. I could see eating a whole birthday cake or an entire slab of ribs as they am good eatin' but raisin bread? Yech. You probably eat everyone's left over Christmas fruitcake too.
