Take any old fruitcake. Poke a lot of holes on top with a fork. Then slowly pour a quarter cup (more or less depending on size of cake) of rum, bourbon, or brandy over it. Wrap and let stand. They will eat it, and if not, it will burn better…
Not to take anything away from our wonderful and engergetic Clyde, I’m reminded of Homer Simpson’s horrified objection when his chemistry professor put a glazed doughnut to the Bunsen Burner.
As Founder and President (and so far sole Member) of the Society for the Prevention of Slander and Libel of Fruitcakes (formerly the Fruitcake Anti-Defamation League), I object!!!
I LOVE that “noxious cake”! I LOVE eating the “inedible candied fruit”! There must be foods you like that I don’t, but I don’t go around making fun of your food preferences!
(Lifetime memberships in the SPSLF available for $50 or one pound of fruitcake. Maybe I’ll even print you up a membership card.)
