Yes. Iron.
I don't believe they can cause cancer.
Believe it or not, but raisins are actually the worse thing for children to be munching on according to the dentists. They cause more cavities than candy. Plus they stick into the tooth which is not good.
Well it depends. If you bought grapes from a store, left them out on your counter for a while, then they would turn into NATURAL raisins. But the raisins that you buy at your local grocery store are very processed. They've been sugared and preserved and just undergone lots of "changes". So they're not as healthy because they are pretty artificial.
