    We could have used these instead of bombs during WWII......

    I grew up eating the fruitcake my mother made every year and never could understand why people always seemed to badmouth fruitcake. Then, one year, someone gave me a factory produced, store bought fruitcake. One bite and I was like, "This vile substance is NOT fruitcake!!!"
    I think the problem with fruitcake haters is that they have never had a proper fruitcake.
    Hope everyone is having a great holiday. ^_^

    I have never understood how people bad-mouth fruitcake. I absolutely LOVE it! My wife buys me one every year around Christmastime, and the poor thing doesn't survive to see the day, LOL! While this featured cake is intriguing, I don't think I would open it and chow. BUT, I WOULD love to own it just for the sentimental value and display it every December under our tree.
