Spotted Dick, Publix, Charleston, S.C. |
I could be more mature but it makes me giggle every time. Spotted Dick is now available in lowcountry grocery stores. I googled to find the origination of the name and came up with a fun article called: Spotted Dick & Other Foods That Sound Dirty But Aren't. They had this hilarious list as well as new ones added in comments. What a hoot!

ReplyDeleteI am indeed!
DeleteJoan, You naughty girl! My favorite is fluffer nutter. I'll never prepare a rump roast now without thinking of you!
ReplyDeleteAren't they grand! Too funny.
DeleteLOL - love your list!
ReplyDeleteI had a British boss until about a year ago, and for Boss's Day we brought him all sorts of British goodies - everything from digestive biscuits, British tea, beer, and, of course, a can of spotted dick. One of my co-workers had heard of spotted dick but had never seen it before, so she got out her iPhone to take a photo of it.
British boss in his best British accent and with that wonderful dry, British humor: "Now don't let my dick end up on the Internet!"
Why, Joan!
ReplyDeleteEgads, you just HAD to say spicy tuna roll.... I LOVE spicy tuna roll! You funny, girl. I've actually eaten spotted dick (I know, I know) and it was YUMMY!
ReplyDeleteHow about Americans going to KFC for breasts and legs.
