Hah. Maybe American kids are just a bit more aware. When I first saw Spotted Dick my first thoughts were "dessert!" not "pimply private parts!". Anyway, I 
like Spotted Dick, as well as all those desserts that fall into 
the "should be eaten with custard" category. On the other hand, are there any good British desserts that don't?!

Who hopes he hasn't confused "desserts" with "deserts"
