That is not black pudding

:)

[@gillianrimmer7733]

That's the weirdest looking black pudding I've ever seen.

[@wetry]

Thank you for watching!

[@ChrisParrett-qo4sx]

@@wetry It's supposed to be a sausage… in a skin… Did no one tell you how to serve it? Generally, it's sliced and pan fried ’til the outside's crispy, then served with the other components of a 'full English' breakfast. It's Britain's equivalent of the Spanish (and latin American) morcilla, French boudin noir, Polish kaszanka, and German blutwurst, amongst other blood sausages found in most meat eating cultures' cuisines.

[@wetry]

We followed the package instructions. Guess we gotta go to the real thing in the UK.

[@FlatMolar]

It is black pudding just without the sausage case. Oatmeal and pig/cow blood

[@gillianrimmer7733]

@@FlatMolar, black pudding is made with fine oatmeal - not the coarse stuff. Also, it's put into sausage skins so that it can be boiled to cook. This results in a sausage that is firm, but sliceable and the consistency is smooth - it's more like a salami in texture, not crumbly and coarse like here. It's able to be eaten without cooking, if you want, because it has already been cooked, but is usually sliced and fried in bacon fat as a part of breakfast.

What in the name of god is that “black pudding”abomination!

[@wetry]

What we could find near us.

[@mrtrickay7111]

​@@wetry ok, but it's not black pudding.

[@what_im_eatin_uk]

You picked a load of items you don't eat on their own lol. Haggis is served with neaps and tatties. Clotted cream goes on a scone. Beans go on buttered toast. Black pudding as part of a full English. Flake can be eaten on its own but most commonly in ice-cream

[@wetry]

Thank you for watching!

[@yoda1970]

dude black pudding is usually cut into half inch slices and then fried in shallow Pan (Frying Pan) in oil/(Beef)fat until crispy. Is always Cooked in the outer Casing and it's removed prior too eating (Plastic in Modern Times).

[@wetry]

It’s what we had available to us in our area.

[@bandycoot1896]

Never seen black pudding look anything like that

[@wetry]

Send us some then ;)

[@karenblackadder1183]

​@@wetryThe good quality black pudding we eat in Britain wouldn't survive the journey. Also I don't think US Customs allow certain types of animal products into the country.

[@wetry]

Good points!@@karenblackadder1183

[@simonfox9452]

Black pudding is nothing like that…

[@wetry]

[@RoyCousins]

"Beef Blood"? Black Pudding is made using pig's blood. And the oats look like they were thrown at it. I think someone is telling porkies! 🐷

[@wetry]

Clearly we are not experts ;)

[@stevehessle1959]

Haggis often has lungs in it and Black Pudding is normally made with Pigs blood, oatmeal and spices.

[@wetry]

Yum!

[@jca111]

That ain't black pudding.

[@wetry]

Send us the real thing then.

[@mrtrickay7111]

​@@wetrywe can't it's illegal to do so, the same goes for haggis. That's why the versions you had of both dishes were not even close to the real thing.

[@deano69]

Across here in England we have bake beans on toast with cheese

[@wetry]

Now that sounds delicious!

I have never seen Black Pudding or haggis that looks like that and I eat them every week .It looks as if whoever made them had never seen one .

[@paolow1299]

@@wetry well done for having a go .and best wishes to you .

[@DaveBartlett]

The people supplying your 'meat products' are appoximating at best - True haggis is not available in the USA, because the consumption of animal lungs is banned, and that is certainly nothing like Black Pudding.

[@wetry]

It’s what we had available to us in our area.

[@Turkeyinthehay]

Pro tip: Try things and decide if you like them or not, THEN find out what it is. At 14, I enjoyed octopus and found out what it was after I declared it to be delicous . How do you not have HP Sauce? Missing out. I love being Canadian!

[@wetry]

That is a fabulous perspective and idea! We will give that a try. Thank you! Let us know if any good Canadian spots to check out or food to try for a video.

[@misolgit69]

well props for trying such a pity the haggis and black pudding were a local attempt not the real thing, now just to show you how popular Cadbury Flake is you should Google Cadbuty flake TV ads and wonder how they got away with it even though it was the 70s

[@shaunfarrell3834]

@@wetry actually Big Ben is the nick name for the largest bell in the chime.

[@MagikGimp]

This made me chuckle. A very interesting black pudding recipe (normally the oats would be ground) but whoever somehow made it look great; yes, like a brownie or something. It's not really a very popular thing to eat here but maybe this is a new twist. Also, the cream on chocolate was pretty funny for me. It's just a culture clash but usually the cream's for the scones you mentioned.

[@wetry]

100%, that's why it was worth trying!! :)

[@AlSnoopsReid]

Where is the "here" you say that b/pudding isn't a popular dish, it certainly can't be the UK. I have lived in Scotland, England and Wales and you can buy black pudding in almost every supermarket and in every butcher's shop I have ever visited. If it wasn't reasonably popular, the shops wouldn't carry them.

[@vickytaylor9155]

Real haggis is banned in the U.S because of some of the ingredients. There are companies that make something similar. Ours is cooked in a sheep stomach. That is not a black pudding as we know it in the uk either.

[@wetry]

Thank you for watching!

[@alfiekelly5914]

Indeed. It's actually hard to find a real haggis even in Scotland. A lot of producers use beef and pork. That didn't even look remotely like haggis, but good video guys. Black pudding recipes vary throughout the UK.

[@alfiekelly5914]

But that monstrosity is NOT black pudding!

[@wetry]

Haha! Right!?

[@wetry]

Thank you!

HP stands for Houses of Parliament. You actually see the Queen Elizabeth the 2nd tower. Big Ben is actually a bell inside of the tower.

[@wetry]

That’s awesome! Thank you.

[@johnchallener]

Enjoy thre Haggis?..do you know what the ingredients are?

[@wetry]

Worth a try!

[@AlSnoopsReid]

Good idea trying the HP sauce with the haggis, although as a Scotsman I would only ever eat haggis with mashed turnip and mashed potatoes with lots of finely ground white pepper. Totally wasted the Flake tho' . Clotted cream is normally eaten with buttered scones and strawberry jam(jelly to you I suppose). As someone else mentioned, that really did NOT look like black pudding. A good b/pudding would have small chunks of pork fat visible when the pudding was sliced. To be honest, only haggis made in Scotland and black pudding made in the north of England are considered to be genuine examples of those foods. If you ever get to the UK, hit me up and I'll give you the addresses of where to either buy or find great menu options for all the UK favourites, specifically a traditional English breakfast or a Sunday roast dinner; plus of course where to go to taste the very best Scotch Whiskey.

[@wetry]

you dont want to eat a whole can of baked beans you would be farting alot lol best served on buttered toast. brown sauce is best with baked beans, or in a thick beef gravy, or even on cheddar cheese sandwiches but not too much spread it thinly
