Best Answer

Foods such as rice and raising (dry grains and dried fruits) do not spoil because their low moisture content does not provide good growing conditions for bacteria and other contaminants. In addition, the high sugar content in raisins and other dried fruit acts as a natural preservative.

Raisins have a very high sugar content which is a natural preservative, therefore they do not spoil---they do progressively dry out until they are like little stones, however.

Dry grains have a long shelf life because they are very dry. Bacteria doesn't have much to work with in a dry environment. Whole grain rice that has a small fat content can become stale after a while, and though it will not taste good, it is perfectly safe to eat
