About National Fruitcake Toss Day
Folks, let's face it - it's the new year and Christmas is disappearing into the distance. If you have any fruitcake left over from the festive feasts, the best thing to do on the first Saturday in January is to throw it as far as you can!
And at this time of year, the birds will thank you for providing them with such a tasty treat.
