Wait, raisins don't grow, once they're raisins, do they?

Upon closer inspection, that one's losing credibility. It's claimed that the National Institute of Genetics in Japan did it, but searching their website for "Graisin" or even "raisin" yielded zero results. Unfortunately, they don't even seem to publish an email address, if they would even give a random curious person on the Internet the time of day, anyways.
