I understand this is a Brit "delicacy" of sorts, which was sent to an English expat in Hawaii. Can one of the British members of the list explain what (and perhaps why) this stuff is?
It is a painful and disfiguring disease that causes much pain to thousands of young english men every year...
or it is a tasty sponge pudding with raisins (or currants or something) in, often served with custard. My step-gran proudly claimed that while her son (my stepdad) was still living at home she provided a steamed pudding for dessert every day of the week. This scares me.
