well, yeah, it's 37 lbs of candyI worked at a bakery for 9 years in my younger days and I never even tried it. Not sure why. We sold a ton of it, and it was pretty expensive.

Glad you clarified.Vile stuff
*Just to be clear I'm talking about fruit cake and not Furley posts.
bigger. it will outlive you, friendI want to try it again. Shelf life like 50 years, right?
I actually did have a good fruitcake once. ONCE. But those nasty things at the stores around holiday time? :XI keep hearing there is such a thing as a quality fruitcake. But I have also heard that there is such a thing as good haggis. I will leave it to others to explore those possibilities.
Seems like the perfect food for a bomb shelter.I want to try it again. Shelf life like 50 years, right?
yes, this fitsNot to hijack the thread, but can we put mincemeat pie in this tier of nasty holiday foods? Typically it has figs and dates and stuff, unless you have an aunt that doesn’t know what goes in mincemeat pie and makes it with actual meat. Sister in law described it as “hell on a fork.” Kinda like meat cake, only with a crust.
yeah, I'm a big fan either. Real mincemeat pie has meat and suet though.Snorkelson said:Not to hijack the thread, but can we put mincemeat pie in this tier of nasty holiday foods?

No, this was basically Bbq beef pie.
Imagine if you took shredded beef, figs, dates, and some sort of bbq sauce but with extra sweet something that I can’t quite identify. It was awhile back, perhaps before the internet had google. I remember seeing it and thinking “that doesn’t look like the mincemeat pie grandma makes” but who cares I go after pumpkin and apple anyway. My sister in law (actually my bros gf at the time, and her first thanksgiving with the family) got a slice, I’m not sure why really, wanted to try something she hadnt that apparently was a staple at our family thanksgiving? It’s after dinner so we’re all milling around, watching football, not at the table anymore. As the story goes, she took a bite, and looked at my brother and said “omg what is this? It’s hell on a fork!” She didn’t want anyone to see her throw it away or not eating it, so my brother took it and set it next to the couch and threw a blanket on it (yeah, great move bro.) So like an hour later, another aunt goes to put her kid down for a nap and sees the blanket on the floor and grabs it to use, and this piece of pie falls out into the floor in front of everybody. Sister in law was mortified- when my grandma, who probably knew exactly why this piece of garbage pie was hiding in a blanket says “oh, one of the grandkids probably took it and didn’t like it, it always happens with mincemeat pie.”What you mean?
