Also, my childhood is calling.

They look like poop.

also everything about dancing raisins scared me as a child and I would automatically cover my eyes in fear if I happened to witness their horror...their sun dried turdlike horror.

I still see the occasional hard rubber figurine of these things at the odd junk store.

I had a friend that worked at Hardee's when they sold them as premiums. He ran a bunch through their salad slicer. They're purple all the way through, in case anyone was curious.

Thank you.

Whatever. It's only the most 1989 thing ever because Morris Day and The Time performing on SNL happened in 1990.

ashtar.

Is this racist?

Old_Zircon - 2013-06-28

Yes.

They were normal, light-skinned grapes until they stayed out in the sun too long, which dried them out and made them dark but also gave them amazing dancing skills.

I'm not sure what you're objecting to here.

Why the fuck do people keep saying this? What the hell is racist about it?? And I'll have you know they were able to sing and dance even when they were grapes. Watch "Meet The Raisins" you tools!

Old_Zircon - 2013-06-29

Super racist.

Old_Zircon - 2013-06-29

I've seen Meet the Rasins 5 or 6 times, basically the claymation Birth of a Nation.

Oh sure, these racially questionable food mascots become a national phenomenon, but the Frito Bandito just gets quietly retired. No fucking justice.

THE CALIFORNIA RAISINS WERE CLEARLY A VOCAL GROUP NOT A BAND WHY ARE THEY PLAYING INSTRUMENTS WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

They weren't lying. They really were the hippest dried fruit around.

If I were Russian, I would be deeply embarassed that my empire collapsed while this was going on in the nation that beat me.

It was less an empire and more of an enormous space of land with nobody in it to really contest whether or not it's in your country to begin with.

still fiving and faving for that comment, even if it's a stretch

The Mothership

Horrid echos of my childhood but I loved this shit though. It was like MTV had fucked a box of Sun-Maid and televised it.

Riskbreaker

Such weird times.

Old_Zircon - 2013-06-29

I have their LP someplace.

NancyDrewFan123 - 2013-06-29

Am I the only one who found the California Raisens creepy as shit?

B_Ko - 2013-06-30

I mean, did you see the preview image?
