Its bootiful. But superfood it's not. I have it regularly along with lots of naughties in the Allygus.

It's OK I suppose 😉
 
Took a ring of reduced price black pudding from Morrisons in West Yorkshire when visiting my parents in West Midlands. Mum was delighted. Not that she can't / doesn't buy it locally. Check out woman initially asked if it was a snake. I replied with a question about if Morrisons sold snakes? No, she said, but they sold shark neat when store first opened!
 
Why is this thread limited to Northerners? Who introduced blood puddings to Britain? The Romans. Blood puddings are popular across Western Europe, especially sausage eating countries - Germany, particularly. You can get them in most European countries that were part of the old Roman Empire. Speak it quietly, but the same applies to haggis. And Scotland loves a black pudding just as much as Northern England.

Most people who consider it vile have never actually tasted it, but I love a well made and spiced black pudding, particularly a fat flecked Bury black pudding.

The only caveat is that you should never eat Black Pudding the day before you submit your poo samples for colonic cancer screening. You will end up having a colonoscopy for your trouble.
 
Thanks for the tip, MikeyB. I'll remember when my bowel cancer screening test arrives.
 
Damn near impossible to get it here (in the States) except for certain areas where there is a large European influence..... Shame really

Awesome stuff Mike.
 
It's actually best eaten uncooked.
 
Well, like haggis, it is already cooked and just needs rewarming for brekkie
 
It's lovely just 'peeled' and sliced fairly thinly across (this is the traditional 'ring' ones) with a bit of sharp cheddar balanced on a Ritz on a buffet or just for an ordinary snack. Or grilled with the edges crispy on a breakfast. Lovely!

When I met my first husband, he'd never had it hot and I (from the Black Country, a whole 6 miles away from where he lived) had never had it cold! We both liked it both ways in the finish!

This is food we're still talking about Jenny? :D

Well, Ive often asked for it uncooked and been quizzed, it's horrible once it's been in a frying pan or under a grill.

I hadn't realised it was that sort of forum
Is that what they mean by "pumping" ???

We are game for a laugh on this forum Bill. Our interests extend beyond black pudding and diabetes! :D
