Yes, I was wondering about the can of baked beans. It was like, eh, what? Those folk from the UK are a bit odd, what with Toad in the Hole, dumplings and other weird stuff they eat (like jellied eels).

LOL @ "...but not green and spotty"

Is there any other way to eat white bread?

Sliced white bread doesn't actually go stale, it just sort of... mutates. Into something green and threatening. I am convinced that the Incredible Hulk is in actual fact the mortal remains of a medium-sliced Kingsmill loaf that someone left in back of their breadbin and forgot about for a couple of weeks.

Toad in the hole is a thing of joy and beauty, not least because of the name Spotted Dick also provides much amusement!

I am still a summer pudding virgin
but I might have a go at bursting my ... brambles with this.
Although I did raise an eye brow and consider backing away slowly regarding the baked beans

I also want to try a deep-fried Mars bar just cuz... I love the sound of arteries slamming shut.

I have been known to put cherries in it sometimes, so you could do that too and be symbolic if you wanted.

In that case, you should obviously make a pilgrimage to Stonehaven:

Jellied eels are delicious. As are stewed eels.

I expect they are, although I've never tried them in that form. Have eaten eel in Japanese restaurants quite often though. Despite his aversion to weird, exotic foodstuffs such as chicken and steak, No 1 Son is v. fond of eel. Tastes a bit like chicken mackerel*

*which is another thing my mother would have no truck with on the grounds that The English ate it
