Ah, yes.  Well, calorie-counters do take note.

Excuse me for stating the obvious, but evidently Starbuck's pain au raison only has one raisin in it. This is probably to keep the calorie count down.

Pas de raisins, in my case, vs raison d'etre

Jeff,
One thing I must say–on this trip in particular–I have been struck by
the fact that you have mentioned (and visited) more towns of which I've
never heard than I can remember hearing from your previous trips.

I guess that shows my unfamiliarity with towns along the
Southern/Eastern coastline.  Of course, there may be many more
towns/mile on the East Coast than in the less populated reaches of
Minnesota. Still.

Now,
From the department of "you-can-find-anything-you-want-on-Google's
restaurant":

1) "Starbucks Pain Au Raison", from a calorie-counting site (not
Starbuck's own though)

2) Kelloggs Raisin Bran Individual Box, Kelloggs Raisin Crunch Bran
Individual Bowl, Kelloggs Raison Bran Crunch Bulk,…", from a food
service site

and my personal favorite

3)"pain's raison d'etre", from an scholarly article on pain & pain
management

And I thought I was being facetious?  In any event, the real pain raison
(which I know Jeff loves), should be pain aux raisins, I believe, just
so you know I know.

Libby doesn't really want to know about raisins in any form (so skip
this whole part of the message, Libby).

Cheers,
Dee
