Hopefully by now you have digested the facts behind King George I known as The Pudding King. Be advised that England in the 1700s was experiencing Pudding Mania. But what about here in the colonies? Did pudding gain a foothold in the early American culinary menu? Land sakes, did it ever!! And the New Englanders put there own spin to it, one of the earliest expressions of American ingenuity and independence. They called it Indian Pudding or Hasty Pudding. Here is a link with the history of an American iconic creation, right up there with jazz. www.saveur.com/article/Kitchen/History-New-England-Indian-PuddingYou are now one step closer to the most astonishing revelation you ever experienced |

I love bread pudding but it's hardly what I consider pudding.
That banana pudding looks delicious.

It's all your fault: you should never have posted that video of the guy walking on pudding. No, wait, it was custard. OK, you're off the hook. |

How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?
That's what I'd like to know.

I like the Hunt's Snack Pack in chocolate flavor. I like it cold rather than the hot versions. I've also had several D&D characters killed by Black Puddings.  |

What To Drink With Your Pudding
We have now seen Pudding Mania sweep England during the 1700s and also witness a King Of England fall victim to its intoxicating taste. We have seen the rise of Pudding in America that century as well and how the colonists asserted their first steps to independence by concocting a distinct native pudding. But what did they serve with their pudding one might ask. In the days before refrigeration, sanitary drinking water and pasterized milk, one must be careful
The first record of tea in England was recorded in 1615 as a product brought over from China. Tea that century was a drink that was rare, expensive and confined to the upper class. Green Tea was the variety that was first introduced.
But suddenly, beginning around 1720, black tea found its way to England, in larger quantities and less expensive. This was occurring at the same time that Pudding was sweeping the country. Now the middle and lower classes were consuming vast quantites of Pudding and Tea. Between 1720 and 1750 tea consumption quadrupled in England as Pudding Mania was the rage. Astounding eh wot? And this phenomena was not limited only to the motherland but across all it's colonies including America. Pudding and Tea. Tea and Pudding.
You now have the foundations of the great Pudding revelation and its a simple matter for you to understand the ramifications based on what I just laided out. Put it all together. Later with more on this

Pudding In Literature
From Charles Dickens- A Christmas Carol Chapter 3
But now, the plates being changed by Miss Belinda, Mrs Cratchit left the room alone — too nervous to bear witnesses — to take the pudding up, and bring it in.
Suppose it should not be done enough! Suppose it should break in turning out! Suppose somebody should have got over the wall of the back-yard, and stolen it, while they were merry with the goose: a supposition at which the two young Cratchits became livid! All sorts of horrors were supposed.
Hallo! A great deal of steam! The pudding was out of the copper. A smell like a washing-day! That was the cloth. A smell like an eating-house and a pastrycook’s next door to each other, with a laundress’s next door to that! That was the pudding. In half a minute Mrs Cratchit entered: flushed, but smiling proudly: with the pudding, like a speckled cannon-ball, so hard and firm, blazing in half of half-a-quartern of ignited brandy, and bedight with Christmas holly stuck into the top.
Oh, a wonderful pudding! Bob Cratchit said, and calmly too, that he regarded it as the greatest success achieved by Mrs Cratchit since their marriage. Mrs Cratchit said that now the weight was off her mind, she would confess she had had her doubts about the quantity of flour. Everybody had something to say about it, but nobody said or thought it was at all a small pudding for a large family. It would have been flat heresy to do so. Any Cratchit would have blushed to hint at such a thing.”
During England's era of Pudding Mania, the mere mention of Pudding would help sell your book

Literature And Pudding-Part 3
The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding By Agatha Christie A Hercule Poirot Mystery
Judging by Poirot's portly portrait, pudding is particularly partaken
So we have Christie, Dickens and Twain using the miracle of Pudding to boost their sales. Makes sense to me |
