I've never tried a fruitcake and I don't think I ever will, especially after reading this article:

Lance Nesta did what many people do when receiving a fruitcake he set it aside, only to rediscover it more than 40 years later in his mother's attic. Nesta couldn't resist taking a peek at the cake, still in its original tin and wrapped in paper.

"I was amazed that it hadn't changed at all," he said.

Mr. Nesta didn't try the fruitcake, but do you think the fruitcake tastes the same as it did over 40 years ago?  I guess we'll never know.
