1. FRUITCAKE DATES BACK TO AT LEAST ROMAN TIMES.
The Romans mixed pine nuts, barley mash, pomegranate seeds, raisins and honeyed wine and shaped it into a cake they called “satura.” Fittingly, the word satire—a literary device the Romans invented—is derived from the cake: a mix of many ingredients both sour and sweet, according to the New York Times.

Yep … remember the Pretender tv show?   Jared either was gifted a fruitcake that Christmas season or he had it over a year and then rewrapped it and mailed it out to someone. :mdrmdr:

And so many wisecrack cartoon jokes …
