As I've been away for a week 12:21 - May 15 with 2685 views | factual_blue | I was wondering if People With Very Real Concerns had been outraged by the Jubilee pudding, which is very Italian with lemons and amaretti? Surely it should something more patriotic, with Proper British Ingredients, like you get in a fruit cake. Nothing foreign about that. rule britannia, balls etc etc. | |

So from what you're saying, married people don't like the Unpatriotic Pudding. | |

Is the man who makes his own ketchup and baked beans really asking to buy a readymade dessert? | |

I'm not really a pudding person as a rule and don't even really bake. Apart from bread. And the odd citrus cake! On closer inspection it also looks more hassle than it's potentially worth. | |

60p in Tesco. They call it ‘banana’, but that’s just a technicality. | |

My old man used to make a dessert called banana surprise (stop chuckling). It was a bowl of custard and the surprise was there were no bananas in it. And what even is an Angel Delight? Rotten stuff. Especially the butterscotch one. | |

If you are rich you will be prudent and make it yourself for under 30 p. However, if you are poor you will be buying it pre-made at an extortionate rate because you don't know either how to cook or budget. Something like that anyway. | |

I googled out of curiosity, and interestingly, got this - https://www.fortnumandmason.com/fortnums-platinum-jubilee-pudding-plate?gclid=Cj The interesting bit is that the UK is currently unable to export to most of Europe + many other places, a home-produced premium product celebrating the unprecedented long reign of the Queen of the UK, because 6 years ago 52% of the UK population voted to shoot itself in the foot. | |

It would have brought income to the UK + helped keep a few people in reasonably well-paid jobs is the point - not about you and your subjective taste. | |

I loved Angel Delight as a kid. Incredible loveliness from magic powder from a packet. I never questioned it or what is it was. I concur with the butterscotch. Heck knows what that was all about but am assuming it was a ploy to be a grown-up version of the dessert or something. | |
