Dole Raisins may be an issue of "Stam-Yainum"- ALERT-besides the issue of infestation

Unlike sun-dried raisins, our [DOLE] raisins are gently bathed
in warm water, dried in warm flowing air, then packed for maximum freshness and flavor. 

So you always get a plumper, moister and 100% naturally sweet raisin.

Soaked in Raisin Juice, is soaking in wine and makes them "Stam-Yainum" and it's Ossur.
They may be soaking numerous batches in the same water/juice, so even if not yad soledes.

An on-site mashgiach should be present to control all of the issues.

A perfect example as to why we don't listen to people posting on the internet.

When soaked a few times in warm water, becomes raisin water, then raisin juice, stam yainum, etc. cause intermarriage, etc. look in the code of Jewish law.
