Who else eats Christmas Cake and Cheese?

I have always eaten my fruit cake with cheese, and I assumed that it was something I started doing when a youngster, at home with my mum, dad and 2 older brothers.

So, imagine my surprise when my oldest brother, who is spending Christmas with us, expressed extreme amazement at such a combination this evening.

Where has he been?

So, do you eat cheese with your Christmas cake - or are we really weird 'up north?'

My dad used to have what we call slab cake, a crumbly fruit cake, between bread & butter. Our family was from Co. Durham.
