I'm sitting here at the internet café. A family of seven seems to think it's their living room and are trying to get their toddlers to perform a rousing rendition of "We Wish You A Merry X-Mas (and a Happy New Year)."
They got to the part about pudding.
"Oh, bwing us uh piggy pudding, Oh, bwing us uh piggy pudding and bwing it wight now!"
The pudding. I'm pretty sure scholars have debated what KIND of pudding they were talking about ever since the first person sang this song and muttered the name of the pudding at that concert before the queen centuries ago.
"What did he just say? Did he say 'bring us a piggy pudding'?"
"No! It was totally FIGGY pudding."
"I could have sworn it was biggy pudding. You know, like a LOT of pudding."
I have to get to work so I don't have time to research this. In traditional 42nd Floor fashion, I'll let you all decide it for me.
Which Pudding Is It Anyway?
Is it...
Piggy Pudding
Figgy Pudding
Biggy Pudding
or
Gimmie Pudding
Your vote will count for double if you also include a list of basic ingredients. You never know, I might just make some!

It's totally Piggy Pudding. It's made with blended bacon, ham, and pork rinds. Great picture, by the way.
Figgy. I'm going to have to go with pagan yuletide tradition on this one. And of course we all know how evil the fig is, thanks to Mark 11:12-14:
"And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry: And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter forever. And his disciples heard it."
Damned figs.
P.S. - Your Santa Claus Holydays Magical Pagan Giftapalooza present is running a bit late, but it should be there soon. Beware the Yule Kitty!
