“I’ve started telling about the benefits of eating dried grapes. It’s about raisin awareness”

“Raisin” sounds like “raising.” “Sellers of dried grapes are always raisin awareness” is a joke that was posted on the website Pun of the Day in February 2000.

“I’ve started telling everyone about the health benefits of dried grapes. Well it’s all about raisin awareness” was posted on Twitter by John Collins on January 2, 2018. “I’ve started telling everyone about the benefits of eating dried grapes…It’s all about raisin awareness really” was posted on Reddit—Dad Jokes on July 19, 2018.

“My buddy just got a job in marketing with Kellogg’s cereals. His job is Raisin Bran awareness” is a similar joke.
