    I almost killed my 85 year old father in law when I told him about the Brit dessert, Spotted Dick pudding. He almost fell off his chair laughing in disbelief. Then I found a can of it in a specialty store and gave it to him. He refuses to open it, and asks guests if they want to see his spotted dick, then produces the can. I’ll have to look for a can of Big Saucy Bangers for him, just to vary his routine. Thanks for the tip!

    When I had heard on CNN that Aaron McCargo and Pat Neely had been kidnapped earlier this week, I was simultaneously aghast at what their captors may have in store for them while also curiously excited about what programs FN may have to pull out of the basement to fill the holes left in the program schedule…Molto Mario?…Bourdain?…Moulton, perhaps??

    It was sad enough to know that they were kidnapped, but now…the horror(!!)…to see the visual evidence of how their Brit captors had planned to “dispose” of the evidence!! Reminds of “Eating Raul”…so tragic…RIP

    P.S. Both men’s junk would benefit from a generous sprinkling of fresh parsley on top…just a suggestion…

    Mmmmm, my favorite foods!

    There is a canned product that Heinz puts out called Spotted Dick. It is a sponge pudding. I thought about buying it as a gag gift for a friend, but it was almost $6.00 a can. Too expensive for a gag gift.

    Sorry didn’t see the previous post about spotted dick.

    My boyfriend is English and would probably love all of those! They eat some crazy stuff!!

  9. Kittykitty says:

    Is it the food that’s crazy or the names? If I offered my family red hot balls for dinner with no explanation, I’m afraid they might faint.

    I’m English and the above would be considered normal although obviously not intended for a gourmet meal. On the whole the English diet doesn’t differ too much from the average American although ingredients tend to be of a higher quality and there’s a growing concern about fat, salt and sugar content of processed foods and various campaigns to get people to eat healthier and prepare their own meals.

    Don’t diss spotted dick until you’ve tried it! Another curiously named English dish is toad in the hole which are sausages in a Yorkshire pudding type batter.
