Extremely hight number of calories in raisins puts this product at the top of hight calorific dried fruits. If you are on diet and you are looking for low-calorific dried fruits, raisins seems to be a bad choice. It is easy to find something better among other dried fruits.

It is hard to find product with higher calories count in dried fruits. Similar energy amount have only such products as dried agave, medjool dates or dried mango.

You should consider that not only calories are important when you are on a diet. If raisins contain nutrition you need than maybe you should add it to your daily menu anyway?
