After several months of incredibly scientific research, I have come to the conclusion that all raisins are twiggy. I’ve tried cheap raisins and expensive raisins, and they all have twigs. Some batches are worse than others; it’s all about the luck of the draw. I’m rather disappointed that with all our technological whizbangery, noone is able to create a way to improve the twiglessness of raisins.
