Fruit Cake for a Fruit Cake

Try eating your frozen wedding cake 2 years later. The thing melted as soon as we took it out of the freezer!!  LOL!!

Obviously, Michigan. It looks like the mitten

Hmmmm.... Michigan!!! Hands down- Haha!

I'm sorry Wisconsin, but it's Michigan hands down! ✋

Definitely Michigan!

For sure... Michigan!!! .. Love ya guys

My mom and I both say Michigan, hands down.

I am a Packer Fan --- but in this case Michigan wins!!

I must be missing something.  I don't see where Wisconsin looks like a mitten, even remotely.  

MICHIGAN its a given.  Cheese or no cheese..michigan.

Michigan, no contest!

michigan for sure!!

Wisconsin clearly looks life a mitten with Door Co. as the thumb.  Michigan's mainland may give WI a run for it's money but when you add the U.P. of MI there is no comparison.  Is MI a glove with parts unraveling!!  

Scott..we'll give the "title" to Michigan on the mitten thing, because we will be getting another title this year of Re-peat Superbowl Champs...or maybe the title of "Undefeated"!!!
North Carolina-Packer fan!!

If you include the UP, it's Wisconsin.  Give up the UP and I'll concede the Mitten!

No Doubt - Michigan Wins!

Oh my! No contest! Michigan! Wisconsin's "thumb" looks like it might be the dr. Seuss grinch's thumb but no way a regular thumb! Isn't wisconsin the cheese heads anyway?

Michigan for sure!!

Michigan all the way!!!

I think that Michigan looks more like a mitten than Wisconsin

I am from Michigan, that's how we describe where we are from. The ONLY state that looks like a mitten!

If you are asking which state you would need mittens more, I guess Wisconsin would win. But it's a no-brainer. Which state looks like a mitten? C'mon, why is it even being discussed? Who would actually argue the fact that Michigan IS the "Mitten State?"

I think i'ts probably colder in Wisconsin, But the Mitten title goes to Michigan all the way BABY!

Are you kidding? Michigan wins-no contest. Wisconsin could be a deformed hand or a fist but not a mitten. And if you talk to michiganders they say the l.p is the hand and the up is the gun held by the lp. Bit of a stretch, bit you could see it.

Clearly Michigan!

Wisconsin!!!  The complete state looks more like a mitten.

I have to say Michigan! Wisconsin's thumb would be more a skeleton thumb...
About the Fruit Cake...My mom used to poor brandy on the towel she would place in the center of the bundt pan fruit cake before she stored the fruit cake away or gave them away. Her fruit cake was moist and delicious. My dad gave them as gifts to fellow workers at CF where he worked.  I wish I had her recipe but she threw it away when I was young.

Michigan...No question!

Having been a life-long Michigander, I have to tell you that it's Michigan.  Where else do people use their hand for a map when someone asks where they live.  I've spent many days and nights camping and fishing in the "Thumb" and frequented many business establishments in the "Tip of the Mitt."  My friend, who migrated from Wisconsin to Michigan long ago, couldn't believe that anyone could seriously consider Wisconsin as a contender for being the "Mitten State."  Keep cheese as your claim to fame, Wisconsin . . . the Mitten is ours!!!!

I think it should be michigan because it looks more like a glove or mitten. If you look at a map, that shows border lines. Its plain to see. Of course I think it looks more like a boxing glove.

Michigan should get the title "Mitten State" if you go by shape. But...if you go by where the Super Bowl XLV Champions, Green Bay Packers, are from, Wisconson has it hands down. Sorry Scott, but Yes. I am a Packers fan.

Michigan looks more like a glove or mitten. Enough said.

Michigan of course

Michigan ALWAYS !!!!  The lower is the mitten. The upper is like a rabbit if you start something new. Ya fur da Yuppers !

Seriously...no contest.  How can Wisconsin even think they can compete with Michigan.  I've lived in both states and loved both states.  Michigan is the true Mitten State though

Scott,  i was listening when the other day when you talked about how hard it is to get in the Christmas mood when you have suffered the loss of a loved one.  I know how that feels all too well but the reason I am writing is that today Proverbs31 devotional addressed "When Christmas is Hard" and I thought you would enjoy reading it and sharing with others.  God Bless!

MICHIGAN ALL THE WAY!! wisconsin just wants attention!

As a neutral Illinoisan, I'm going to have to go with Michigan

Michigan definitely looks more like a mitten. the other looks like a snow puddle.

Michigan looks like the mitten

Michigan is the mitten state wisconsin is more like the ET state!!!

Michigan! Without a doubt. I have to agree with Scott, after all, he just clarified his vision with new glasses!

Michigan is the only mitten state!  Wisconsin is not even close.  Would they like a little wine with their cheese?

When I was in my 20's my employer would give us a turkey and fixings with a fruitcake from Collins St. Bakery.  They were good and I am not a fruitcake fan.  I put it in my mom's freezer and 20 years later when they were moving we decided to try it.  It was STILL pretty good!  I contacted the bakery just to let them know that their fruitcakes will last 20 years in the freezer and they sent me a new one!!  That one we ate!!!

I just heard the news that Michigan won.  Umm I agree it does look like more of a mitten than Wisconsin.  Kelli you seem to do a great job of trying to keep Scott in line.  Scott try to be good sounds like that is hard for you.  I enjoy listening to you guys whenever I can.  Take care and have a wonderful Merry Christmas.

Michigan - no contest

Fruit Cake is good for 6-12 months unopened!  MMMM...I love candied fruit cake.  My husband gets me one every year...i like it much more than homemade!
Merry Christms...enjoy the cake!

I have to agree . . . Michigan looks like a mitten more than Wisconsin does!

Heard the two of you discussing this a few days ago.  I agree that most fruitcakes are awful but I side with Scott in that the fruitcakes from Collins Street Bakery are delicious.  I grew up hearing the fruitcake jokes, but my husband's grandparents lived in Texas and would send a Collins Street fruitcake to family each year.  After watching my husband devour it year after year I tried it and am now a huge fan.  In fact I just placed my order online to have one delivered to us for Christmas.  Collins Street Bakery - Try It, You'll Like It!!!!

as to the part of michigan separate from the mitten-I think it looks like a cat all stretched out and the mitten is reaching out to scratch it.

I'm from Michigan and it's the one and only mitten state!

I am also from Michigan. It's definitely the mitten state, no doubt about it!

Michigan looks like a mitten. Sorry, Wisconsin.

You guys are funny, but EWW I cannot believe you guys ate the fruit cake! Fruit cake is disqusting, and very unhealthy. I don't know how anyone can eat something that has LARD in it, and so many other bad things in it. YUCK!

Uh.....duh!  Michigan definately looks like a mitten!  No comparison there.
