Answer : RAISIN
raisin – n
dried grape
raisin, dried fruit of certain varieties of grapes. Raisin grapes were grown as early as 2000 BCE in Persia and Egypt, and dried grapes are mentioned in the Bible (Numbers 6:3) during the time of Moses. David (Israel’s future king) was presented with “a hundred clusters of raisins” (1 Samuel 25:18), probably sometime during the period 1110–1070 BCE. Early Greeks and Romans adorned places of worship with raisins, and raisins were awarded as prizes in sporting events. Today’s chief raisin producers include Turkey and the United States, which together account for about 80 percent of the world’s raisin production. Other important raisin-producing countries include Iran, Greece, Chile, and South Africa. The U.S. raisin industry is located mainly in California, where the first raisin grapes were planted in 1851.
The most important varieties of raisin grapes are the Thompson Seedless, a pale yellow seedless grape also known as Sultanina (California); Muscat, or Alexandria, a large-seeded variety also known as Gordo Blanco (Australia); White Hanepoot (South Africa); and the Black Corinth, a small black seedless type, also called Zante currant, Staphis (Greece), and panariti. Other varieties of raisins of local importance include the Round Kishmish, Rosaki, Dattier, Monukka, and Cape Currant
