A good home made fruit cake is really good, but a bad one of any type is totally bad....there's no in between.

I like it with coffee or hot tea once or twice a year. Some of the store bought stuff is good, and some of it is trash.

My Mom used to make it homemade, but she's been dead a decade and the recipe died with her.

I'm 71 and my fruit cake experience is all from the 1950's into the mid 1960's thanks to my maternal grandparents. I never minded fruitcakes and they were pretty good. At least the ones my grandparents had.

My dad’s side of the family was from Corsicana, Texas. So I grew up eating fruitcake.

A good one, with lots of nuts and real fruit, not just candied citrus rind, is pretty good in small portions. Used to carry it as part of my hunting lunch.

Just the thing with a big glass of eggnog.

Dried out it makes a good spare tire for a wheelbarrow or small lawn tractor.

Dad's friend always bitches at us, we clean a deer and all the organs go in the gut pile for the crows and coons. He always wants the heart and liver.

Told him he's free to go get it

Carve a slice, slather on some butter, and pour yourself a cuppa. Your inhibitions will fade away.

My Dad’s Insurance broker business partner in South GA used to send us a Claxton fruitcake every season. It is an acquired taste like in the event of nuclear war.
