Currants in French are raisins de Corinthe and it's damn near impossible to find them in Belgium for a not-taking-the-piss price. I was bemoaning this last year at mincemeat-making time when a friend shared pictures from their holiday in Zanthe. So I got some actual Zanthe currants for my mincemeat [which to avoid confusing non-UK people, does not contain meat].
