I have this very thick book with all foods there are in it, chemically described one by one. Guess what: it doesn't say!
But according to the book raisins have a moisture content of 15,7 g /100 grams. That's pretty dry, so unless they are exposed to moist air, very dry air or water, they wouldn't change over time. That means they stay "fresh" for ever.
But it also depends on how well they are produced, making raisins can be tricky.

tallboy61	Posted Aug 26th, 2009 at 9:49AM By raisins i presume you mean clagnuts , well i would say they are fresh when they have a shine to them are soft to the touch and there is no way of dislodging them from their hairy perch . They are considered old when dull , turn easily to dust and can be picked off with the soft part of the finger tips . The best tim eto harvest them is during that "inbetween" stage . What a very strange question. Rated: +1Vote for this!

Petrova1	Posted Aug 26th, 2009 at 10:09AM Raisins are just sun-dried grapes so I guess they are at their freshest when they've just been dried. You don't pick raisins off a tree lol! ;0))) Rated: +1Vote for this!
