Subject: RE: BS: Who call them Sultanas
G'day GUEST,

Well I call raisins raisins and sultanas sultanas.

Admittedly, sultanas are made from a species of small seedless raisin - but they are small, yellowish and fairly insipid, while raisins are larger, plumper, darker and much richer in flavour ... around this part of the world, anyway! (Sydney, Australia ... eating dried friuts from the Australian Riverina).

Regards,

Bob Bolton
