I’ve mentioned the Manitou Springs Great Fruitcake Toss before. It’s a fabulous event held in January of each year, to treat the fruitcake with the respect it so rightly deserves.
Find out more about this event. I’ll be there.
Things to consider
- Planning to travel this holiday season? In 2005, CBC News announced that fruitcake is a security threat. In fact, they said if you try to bring a fruitcake onboard an airplane, expect it to be X-rayed because they are dense and could hide a weapon. This restriction is still in effect today. No kidding? I’ve always believed that the fruitcake itself was the weapon. In fact, you could kill someone with a fruitcake, easy.
