Question

Eli5: Why are raisins considered a healthy snack for toddlers if they’re mostly sugar?

In: Biology

Answer 1

I believe that it’s less of a healthy snack and more of a combination of “it’s a type of fruit that’s easier for the child to handle, and if the child throws it on the ground, it won’t really squish like a grape does”
