  • Sponge blog blogs about fruitcake: "Fruitcake is a hard, usually log-shaped pie filled with fruit or whatnot, and sometimes nuts; thus, the term 'He's a fruitcake.' It's despised by most, and yet there's such a high demand for it! You always see the stuff, and always get it. I guess it's just tradition, because this gooey garbage has nothing else going for it. Nevertheless, it's so popular that Jay Leno has a hilarious advice segment called 'Ask the Fruitcake Lady.'"
