It's delicious... especially with brandy butter and cream.
Dont get ne wrong... I live all the alternatives like trifle, oavlova and chocolate log but you cannot beat Christmas pud.

I hate it. My mum and dad seem surprised every year when I say I don't want any.
I'm 48. I've never eaten it.

Because it contains the mankiest combination of boak-worthy ingredients. It is like a weird form of christmas punishment.

Whenever I have eaten it, I felt like someone had a personal vendetta against my taste buds.

I love it. After Christmas, I go and buy them heavily reduced in the shops and eat some more!

I like it, but it's so heavy, too filling.

If it's so great, why do people only have it once a year, hmmm?

Because it's horrid. Sticky, nasty, over fruity, lumpen ball of ming!

I hate malt loaf too, its basically just stealth christmas pudding, disguised as a cake.

Grim. And mince pies.

In fact, anything with high density dried fruit.

Which is odd, as I like dried fruit in muesli.

I flipping love Christmas pud. With Brandy butter, vanilla ice-cream, snarffle snarffle.

I like that a lot of people dislike it. More for me.

I like it with ice cream AND custard. AMAZING.
