a treat for fans of Patrick O'Brian:
Take from can, pop in microwave, serve, eat, enjoy. "Spotted Dick" was one of the few non-nauseating shipboard foods described in author Patrick O'Brian's nautical fiction, in the series beginning with "Master and Commander".
Funny Novelty:
I got this from our friends in the UK. We passed it around as a conversation piece with great hilarity. Finally opened it up after 6 months. It is quite good..a little bland..but warm it up in the microwave and it tastes better. Its a mix of crumbly cake and raisins. We don't take it seriously enough for the quaility of the contents only for the funny name. I'd recommend Heinz sticky toffee pudding way over this. when you dump out the sticky toffee pudding on a plate, the sauce covers the top and sides like a creme caramel pudding. Nuke it in the microwave and we put it in the middle of the table and we all dig right in with vanilla ice cream on the side. YUMM-O !
Packaging is not the same as pictured:
I work for Heinz and bought this as a funny item to add to a gift bag for a co-worker; however, the packaging pictured here is not the same as what I received. Pictured here, the name stands out and has a funny impact; the cans I received were slightly re-worded so the phrase "spotted dick" was lost in the middle of the phrase "Taste of Home Delightful Spotted Dick Pudding" with all words having the same size and style of font. It's almost as if they deliberately wanted to remove the perhaps unintentional shock value the original packaging had. Sadly, that's why I purchased it!
