Claxton fruitcake was a tradition in my house growing up.

It killed me when fruitcake started to become a joke to some people. It damaged the economy in Claxton GA and made Claxton fruitcakes hard to find.

I've never found a fruitcake that wasn't hard.....

They are quite easy to find if you live down here in the south.

I see them in gas stations even.

I think the fruitcake jokes were just the start of the whole "anti-Christmas PC thing" that's been permeating our society for the past couple of decades.
