I recently went to a new restaurant with family, it was a Tapas type restaurant. One of the dishes that was ordered was Stornoway black pudding with sautéed chicken livers, caramelised onions & Marsala. Ive never had black pudding before but after trying the dish I quite liked it.
So a few days later I was in Morrisons and thought I'd buy some. They had two on sale but I went with Bury black pudding. Big mistake, it tasted nothing like the stuff I had in the restaurant. The restaurant stuff was sweet, peppery with a crumbly texture, the Bury stuff tasted like paxo stuffing, squidgy and horrible.
As I am a black pudding noob, who or what is Stornoway black pudding. Are there multiple black puddings that are made in Stornoway or just the one as I'd like to buy the stuff I liked?

I assume the stuff in the link is different to Macleod Macleod? One foot of the stuff is way too much for one, I'd be eating it for a year, lol.

They sell Stornoway black pudding in Costco in Scotland but not sure about down south. Its about £6 about a foot long and cuts up and freezes well.
This is the stuff you want http://www.charlesmacleod.co.uk
