"The Cape Adare huts were built by Norwegian Carsten Borchgrevink's British Antarctic (Southern Cross) Expedition in 1899 and later used by the Northern Party of Captain Scott's Antarctic Expedition in 1911.

Future archeologists will find tons of fruit cakes in landfills. Dan |

I'll admit I have had some very good fruit cake … But the vast majority … Not so much. Plus the calorie content is very high …  Good I guess if you are living in an Artic environment …  |
