Are you a fan of fruitcake and similar? Or are you like me and detest it?

And it definitely needs to be washed properly first, to get rid of any grit, and the anti-sticking coating!

I absolutely love any kind of fruitcake! Will choose it over any other kind. At Christmas, my mum makes traditional Christmas cake & I'm pretty much the only one who eats it 🥰 MIL used to share with me when she was alive though 😥

Don't like them.

I love dried apricots, but they make me fart lots!

I love dried fruit and especially a heavy fruit cake! 😋

Love it and could eat it way past the point of sensible.

Love it, Waitrose Soft Figs are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, and I have to hold myself back from eating more than two a day. Raisens are nice, dates, prunes, basically love it all.

Adore it all.

In cereal and in cake. Christmas cake is my absolute favourite.

Love it

Dried apricots I like very much with a strong cheese.

Sultanas yes, raisins no.

Dried bananas no way.

Love dates.

I was very happy about dried fruit, but someone on another thread said figs aren't vegetarian and now I feel a bit confused and ambivalent. 🤔

Love it - for a nice snack, I recommend the Whitworth's Jumbo Flame raisins - they do them in Sainsbury's (and elsewhere probably).

For porridge, I use the regular raisins and cranberries - I soak them overnight with the oats and milk.

I absolutely hate dried fruit in all forms. For some reason it makes me absolutely gag. I don’t know what it is about dried fruit as it has never done anything to me personally but I hate it.

GoldenOstrich · 30/03/2024 19:32

I don't like it. My sister used to order graze fruit and I didn't like it. Although I like raisin and saltanas and cake with raisins in it and cake with saltanas in it and I like chocolate raisins and I once tried chocolate dry strawberries and I liked them

Like dried fruit, not a massive fan of fruitcake.
