I like fruitcake too. Nobody gives it any more and I’m the only one in my family that likes it. So, I catch a miniature one after Christmas at a discount.

The grocery store in the town where I lived before retiring would mark their Claxton fruitcakes way down after Christmas, so I’d buy them out each year.

I don’t know why fruitcake has such a bad rep. I’ve loved it since I was a kid. Back then we’d get several as gifts every year, and they’d get eaten, not regifted.

It seems there is not many of us fruitcake lovers left around
anymore. The place where I used to work used to give a “Grandma’s” fruitcake out to folks every Christmas. I thought they were delicious.
