Maybe the 141-Year-Old Fruitcake Would Taste Bad
Today is Fruitcake Day! Fruitcake has a bad reputation, but it’s really a delicious cake made with candied fruit and nuts. Ancient Romans used pomegranate seeds and pine nuts. Honey and spices were added in the Middle Ages. One family in Michigan has a fruitcake family heirloom, baked in 18 78, by their great-great-grandmother, Fidelia Ford!
