My mom used to make fruitcake because my dad liked it (I never have). She usually used cooking wine to soak the fruit. One year, someone suggested that she use rum instead. As Baptists, we didn’t have any in the house, so off we went to the local liquor store to get some. We go in and she asks the clerk for some “barracuda” rum.
