Sweetend dried cranberries!
Yes, craisins and dried cranberries are essentially the same thing; "Craisins" is a brand name for a type of dried cranberry produced by Ocean Spray. While all Craisins are dried cranberries, not all dried cranberries are Craisins, as other brands may offer their own versions without using the trademarked name. Craisins are often sweetened and may contain added ingredients, whereas other dried cranberries might not.
It depends on who makes them, but normally the craisins are just soaked in an orange juice concentrate before being dried.
That's a good question. If you started eating just craisins, than no its not. If you add craisins to something you eat daily, than your adding not subtracting. You still need to eat 3 fruits and vegetables daily and small amount of starch. Also, a measurable amount of poultry. The final answer is that its healthy if you add it and keep the other important things in your diet in addition to the craisins. So yes craisins are a good form of diet if you keep eating other healthy things with it.

Craisins are dried cranberries, and are made by dehydrating (removing water by drying) cranberries. You could make your own dried cranberries in a food dehydrator, or you could buy them but the only ones that would be called craisins would be those sold by Ocean Spray, because they have a registered trademark for the name craisin.
There are approximately 24 calories in 1 tablespoon of Craisins.
Fresh raisins and cranberries would be better.

Craisins, which are dried cranberries, are typically not made from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). As of now, cranberries themselves are not widely available in GMO varieties. However, it's always a good idea to check the packaging for specific labeling if you are concerned about GMOs, as practices can vary by brand and region.
We do it all the time--just defrost a little before using to get full flavor and not have them too hard
