"Well, if everyone starts using her patented gin/raisins concoction, drinks the gin and spits [or tosses] out the raisins, then the environment would be hopelessly littered in no time, right?"

Nice try...but as any Greenie can tell you, raisins are completely compostable, and you are "part of the problem and not part of the solution" unless you're composting your used raisins, LOL! :)

I detest this woman! I will never understand the left. Ever! They're such a bunch of hypocrites, no matter WHAT the subject!

I wouldn't want to walk the street where everyone is spitting raisins in every direction. First, I would have to dodge the flying raisins; secondly, the ground would become slippery; thirdly, all kinds of pests would be feasting on the raisins, presenting public health problem. And as for compostability, in Middle Ages they used to toss the chamberpots' contents (after the dark) right out of the windows on the street. It was the most Green practice imaginable, but I wouldn't want it to return.
