Spotted Dick is a steamed pudding, containing dried fruits, usually currants. The dessert originates in and continues to be especially popular in the United Kingdom [citation needed], usually served either with custard or with butter and brown sugar. Spotted refers to the raisins (which resemble spots) and Dick may be a contraction/corruption of the word pudding (from the last syllable) or possibly a corruption of the word dough. [citation needed] It is also known as spotted dog, plum duff, figgy dowdy, as well as plum bolster, and Spotted Richard.
Thats very British. But I think you know that. Lol @ Spotted Richard.
Our pub serves that occasionally, but because people laugh at the name constantly, they changed the name to something boring.

It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!
I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

OMG- -You've got to be kidding. I need to get my rear over to a Kroger.
I normally shop at Harris Teeter or Food Lion cause they're both closer to me but there's a Kroger a little further up from the Food Lion that I could browse.
I've never seen it in either Food Lion or Harris Teeter.
