As a girl who loves her puddings, I've just remembered it's been eons since I last had one of those Heinz tinned puddings. I'm pretty sure the last time I scoffed one of those was back in the late nineties.
If I remember correctly, Heinz were the only ones who did puddings-in-a-can (correct me if I'm wrong) and I think they were four different varieties: spotted dick, chocolate, treacle (my fave) and jam (I think.)
I live in the States now so I don't know if they're still as readily available as they once were. A quick online search shows they have been given a new look and are called Heinz Taste of Home Puddings. I know they can be bought online but don't remember seeing them on supermarket shelves last time I was home.
Is/was anyone a fan of these?
I've been told that these puddings are still available in most leading supermarkets. Well if they are I've certainly never seen them. I need to ask my friends exactly where it is they've seen them. But I do remember having these when I was very young. The treacle pudding was gorgeous. I remember that. I'm sure I liked the others too but it's the treacle that stands out in my head.
