Funny you should ask, as I sit here eating the from-scratch tapioca pudding I made. Yum.

Tapioca's the shit. Banana cream IS shit.

Chocolate. I like banana and I'll eat most flavors, but ask and I want chocolate!

I'm a big fan of butterscotch. When we used to hit Dairy Queen on the way home from the beach (CBaB and DukePA, you know the one on Hwy 70 by the bridge?), I used to get vanilla cones dipped in butterscotch. Mmmmmmm pudding.

Homemade banana cream pudding for me - the one with the vanilla wafers in it. I haven't made that in ages...

Although I'm a non-recovering chocoholic, my favorite pudding is Butterscotch. I especially like it when it is still warm.

Chick-Fil-A will be releasing a banan pudding milkshake some time in the near future.

4 times the saturated fat and sugar of a vanilla shake?

Banananana cream, assuming you meant banananana pudding with real banananananas and 'Nilla wafers. I'm happy with whipped cream or meringue on top, slightly browned, please

If we're talking about Jello instant pudding right out of the box, there is none better than the Cheesecake flavored pudding.

YUM!

Bread is pretty darned tasty, too, especially with raisins and a bit of whiskey or rum sauce.

Try putting some raspberry jam in it. Trust me.

Banana cream IS shit.

Truer words have never been spoken (or typed).

My favourite is home-made rice pudding from the family recipe. I've been telling my Mom for years that she'd make a fortune if she were to sell it.

I did not mean with real bananas and 'Nilla wafers. Just straight up, what is your favorite pudding?

I agree that rice pudding is the bomb. We have a family recipe for Risgrynsgröt, which is a traditional Swedish rice pudding made with milk and eggs that cooks for about four hours.

As a point of fact, the Malagasy diet is loaded with rice and protein, usually beef or fish, and then you add in veggies, if available. Breakfast is usually SABEDA, leftover rice cooked with extra water. The consistency is like runny rice pudding, only blander. IN ANY CASE, the last site I worked at (for two weeks) had sabeda every morning. The foreigners in charge of breakfast would add canned evaporated sweet milk, and let it cook, so that it became sort of a rice pudding. Topping was brown sugar. Their belief was that the Malagasy, being from a poor country, would eat just rice/rice pudding for breakfast. After all, in the West, all we have for breakfast is some sort of grain.

The rice pudding was as malnutritious as you can imagine. And you can only eat so much of the stuff. Which meant that people were getting ill and unproductive.

Typically, breakfast in Madagascar is sabeda with a protein, usually dried beef or fish, with some sort of hot drink. It fuels you for work in the morning. DINNER is typically the lightest meal.

The Malagasy and I refused to have this rice pudding substitute for breakfast.

Sorry, but rice pudding in all its concoctions is just revolting to me.

Does rice pudding count?

How about bread pudding?

If neither of those, I'll just take chocolate then.
