Guest Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 The oldest known fruitcake is approximately 130 years old and lives under glass in a Michigan home. It was baked by a woman in preparation for a Thanksgiving meal in 1878, but she died right before the holiday and her family didn’t have the heart to eat it. So instead of throwing it out, they saved it and passed it down through the generations. In 2005 this fruitcake made an appearance on “The Tonight Show” and Jay Leno actually took a bite. And just like every other fruitcake ever made in this world, it was nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone were to partake of a slice, I would think that they would bomb any standard field tests for field sobriety. a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
