So it's an anti-American thread that's supposed to be pro-Brit dessert? Or is it pro-Christian?

What is Christmas pudding? I once had a dream I was in the English countryside, thirsty, so I stopped off at a little pub thingy...I asked what they had to drink and they said "Christmas Coke". I ordered one, and it tasted like cinnamon was in the coke. I awoke, was eager to make Christmas coke, bought some cinnamon extract at the store (and Coke), put it together...and voila! Christmas Coke! It tasted just like the dream. Strangely, later that year during the holidays, Coke marketed a Christmas version of their Coke, and it tasted like mine!!!

Maybe it would go good with Christmas pudding.

Christmas pudding is truly delicious though I haven’t got a clue how difficult it is to make.

You must be able to get this in the US

this reminds me of about 2 and a half years ago. my step brother (12 years old at the time) was goofing around and my g/f was trying to get him to try coffee. he said he would drink it if it was mixed with something, "like coke", so we poured some coffee into his coca-cola and voila! it tasted like shit. just like the coke blak that came out a year or so later. we laughed our asses off when we saw it in the store though.

You can buy it in the States. My brother lives near Baltimore and like a sad homesick Limey expat he finds somewhere to buy it it every Christmas to eat on his Jack Jones.

My grandmother used to make her own and stirred in sixpences wrapped in greaseproof paper throughout the pud. It tended to concentrate one's mind when we got to the last course on Christmas Day.

christmas pudding is no harder to make than a fruit cake is. it's very very rich and also yummy.

the proper traditional ones are so drenched in hard liquor that you make them almost a year in advance, and they preserve themselves. it is unchristian to eat christmas pudding without custard, or, if you must, cream.
