The Harry and David Fruit Cake Confection
Actually, I like the stuff they say they don't put in this one ("the rum, the rinds, the yucky green things"), but this version is delicious.

wow. looks good, but i don't know about buying 1000 of them at 22 bucks.... ouch.
maybe if we're going to purchase them we'll get in touch w/ somebody up top and let them know about the free publicity for their company (who knows, maybe they're allies?) and the bulk purchase, see if we can't get a discount.
we'll mark that down as top of the line, perhaps try and establish a range (unless there is a sympathetic, patriot, maxed out donor somewhere looking to help...)

There is some place in Corsicana, TX that is a popular fruitcake place in the US. This time of year they are churning out these bricks 24/7 non stop.

No, THIS is the top of the line. I just like Harry and David's better.

You read my mind...their fruitcakes are incredibly awesome. Of course, they ain't cheap either, but...

While you are there check out the russel stover factory, they have an incredible outlet, I promise you won't leave without some of the best chocolate deals ever, for some high quality stuff!

I wonder if we should send fruitcakes to that 17 year old Fredhead CBS reporter who called Paul a Fruitcake?:p

sorry, this thread refers back to this thread (http://http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=34038). i was considering setting up a poll to decide which fruitcake, but wanted to get some favorites first...
not having ever purchased, or eaten a fruitcake.
