Is Xmas pud to get its just desserts?
Despite dessert being a big part of the meal, the poll showed that only 29% of 18-24 year olds would eat Christmas pudding, compared with 61% of those aged 55 years old and over.
Gray claimed this indicated the days of the Christmas pudding may soon be over.

Trench Pudding was a fairly heavy, stodgy steamed rice pudding designed to fill you up.
It was made slightly more palatable with the addition of carrot jam.
