Oh no! ! ! ! My brother tried to heat one up in a pot of water and fell asleep... . . The can exploded and we had pudding splattered over every wall and the ceiling... . The whole kitchen had to be redecorated.

I loved the chocolate one. You can get steamed puddings at Foodtown from the bakery or off the shelf is Aunt Betty's. We had the Christmas Plum Pudding $9 it was excellent

Hi my family had a dairy and we sold puddings in a tin they were by Betty Crocker, not around any more too many explosions so I believe

Yes I remember them - the chocolate one in a red tin or was it caramel? The sauce was thick and gopping. I remember eating them often hoping I would like them but in the end hohum.

I remember the ad I think.

was that the one with the 3 beagle boys in a bed being promised a spongy pud? We nagged Mum to buy them but she never would.

Coleman's spongy puds. We used to love those as a special treat.
There was also another brand that did a fruit roll you swerved with hot custard.
