    Apparently Amazon is prepared to satisfy the desires of those who crave a bit of the "old Spotted Dick" (pudding, that is).. and, tee-hees aside, this has to be one of the most unfortunate names for a food that I can think of, sorry!

    Heinz Spotted Dick Pudding, 10-Ounce Cans (Pack of 6) $16.87 at Amazon, in case you're interested. And eligible for FREE Super Saver Shipping on orders over $25 (so order 2 ;) )

    Curious about the origins of Spotted Dick?
