Spotted Dick

I was shipping at Kroger today and while I was passing the International Food section I saw a can labeled "Spotted Dick". It was some sort of canned sponge cake. A good looking woman walked by and I asked her if she wanted to see something funny and I held the can up for her to read and she said Spoted Duck and I told her to read it again. She turned red and walked away. Typical born again neocon that have flooded my area. I thought it was funny. Maybe I'll buy I can to display with my Hot Sauce and Single Malt collection.

Can't believe you never heard of it before, it's as commonly known as haggis.


"you want some more spotted dick, sir?"

Haggis = Haggis is a dish containing sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately three hours.

Spotted dick is a steamed suet pudding containing dried fruit (usually currants) commonly served with custard, and a standard part of English cuisine. Spotted refers to the dried fruit (which resemble spots) and dick may be a contraction/corruption of the word pudding (from the last syllable) or possibly a corruption of the word dough. Another explanation offered for the latter half of the name is that it comes from the German word for "thick," in reference to the thickened suet mixture.

That is what the Indians said about the Pilgrims circa 1620.

Willy is also a nickname for William (my birth name). When I was a kid everyone called me Willy until I was about 7 or 8, after that they called me Wild Bill. Now only women call me Willy preceded by big.

Willy I suspect all most women do around you is laugh.

As for spotted dick, this was a favorite dessert of Jack Aubrey in the Patrick O'Brien series of novels about the English Navy circa 1800.
