buzzfeedukMy best friend: “Sounds about right.”
I knew all of this… and it still makes my head hurt…
Fucking English
the biggest lie here is the claim that black pudding tastes good. It just tastes like sad bread.
I currently have “The worst pies in london” stuck in my head after reading this…
Also
My parents adored black pudding so I have tried it and I am…not a fan…of the examples of it that I have tasted O.O;
My girlfriends reaction to it was “Why would you Cook Something Made Of Blood that is what vampires do”
Idk i mean blood sausage is pretty dope
Also yall should be ashamed of your abuse of the word “pudding”
I don’t think I’ve ever tried blood sausage…
And ye this is the most inaccurate use of the word pudding I have ever seen
And don’t forget Steak and Kidney pudding!
Pudding comes from Boudin (a kind of sausage) so savoury puddings make more sense than sweet ones. However Yorkshire Pudding is more a sort of fluffy pancake which can be eaten savoury (with meat or onion gravy) or sweet (with jam or honey).
Don’t forget pease pudding:
Pease Pudding Hot
A Playground and Skipping Rhyme
Pease pudding hot
Pease pudding cold
Pease pudding in the pot
Nine days old
Some like it hot
Some like it cold
Some like it in the pot
Nine days old
And bag-pudding (Christmas pudding is the usual surviving form).
When Good King Arthur Ruled This Land
A Nursery Rhyme
When good King Arthur ruled this land,
He was a goodly king;
He stole three pecks of barley-meal
To make a bag-pudding.
A bag-pudding the king did make,
And stuffed it well with plums;
And in it put great lumps of fat,
As big as my two thumbs.
The king and queen did eat thereof,
And noblemen beside;
And what they could not eat that night,
The queen next morning fried.
This book includes:

Read or write the word “pudding” often enough and it stops making sense.
So..

“School” is another word that if read or written often enough stops making sense, so I’m fairly sure there’s a dish somewhere called School Pudding.
Next, when is a pie not a tart?
When it’s a Maid of Honour, but not always…
