    I would say Yes because they are rich in potassium Heres a quick link to another good potassium list, needless to say I have started eating tomato puree from the tube

    Raisins and sulatanas are pretty much the same thing aren't they?

    LOL ELP that would be a sight, seeing someone eating the paste from a tube! (don't give me crazy ideas lol)

    And raisins are grapes just like sultanas but they are taken at different stages aren't they and dried a bit differently??

    I had to google lol
    Saltanas are made from green grapes and raisins are made from dark grapes! Sultanas are sweeter, lighter and more moist and less acidic.

    So there ya go lol
