When you can get Stornaway stuff mail order, there's little point buying anything else - particularly if it's the shat made just outside of Manchester, never tastes right.

I like Tesco's black pudding from the deli counter - just get a small amount and try it. I find Sainsburys a little bit too smooth and nearly twice the price. Lidl's I really didn't like.

Horrid.

Where are the chunks of fat?

Honestly, bury black pudding is where the clever money is. ( wink )

Eurgh, yuk - chunks of fat hurl

Best black pudding I've ever had was from Porterford's in Bow Lane (that there London I know rolleyes).

It's quite chunky with noticeable grains of barley (?) in it, but nice and peppery. For a black pudding hater, I actually liked it.

Best supermarket offering I've found is the Laverstoke Park Organic Black Pudding from Waitrose/Ocado. Much better than the various supermarket Bury black pudding. And very PH, as Laverstoke Park is owned by former F1 driver Jody Scheckter smile

Where do you all sit on the subject of French Boudin Noir? Big fan myself, but it's quite different to black pudding (which I also adore).

I'm quite partial to a Hungarian one that I get from a local place. lick

Yeah it's ok. Less oats and stuff in it (if any) so its really just a seasoned blood sausage. They eat them for dinner and with fruit compote quite often which works very well.
