Talk:Black pudding

Proposed merge with Vegetarian black pudding
Vegetarian black pudding may not be notable on its own. Merging it into the article for the original foodstuff is an option. JHCaufield - talk - 18:53, 22 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Until vegetarian black pudding becomes as notable/widely used as tofurkey (which actually has a tag) or can be a well developed article in its own right, I'm inclined to agree. Tomásdearg92 (talk) 00:11, 23 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Agreed, not notable in its own right. Should be merged with main Black Pudding article. Wording also sounds suspiciously like its lifted from an advert... hazza (talk) 00:10, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Removing the plastic wrap when cooking black pudding
The first section mentions that many black puddings come in a plastic wrap, which is true, and that this must be removed before cooking, which is not true, in my experience. No citation is given, and I don't have one either. I propose to remove the piece about needing to remove the wrap, unless I hear arguments to the contrary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Astaines (talk • contribs) 14:37, 17 November 2016 (UTC)

Doggy treat
Well gee-whiz. Used as "a common reward treat in canine training?" Tastes that good, huh? LOL. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.138.94.57 (talk) 05:42, 10 May 2017 (UTC) And your point is? A lot of people eat this, all over the world, your myopic view does not stand, especially when you can't be bothered to use a sign-in. ZL3XD (talk) 08:06, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

Swedish and Estonian links?
The article is in Category:Swedish cuisine and Category:Estonian cuisine but makes no mention of either country in the text. What connections does this dish have with these countries? TIA HAND —Phil | Talk 11:34, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

 * No more so than any other blood sausage; I'll remove them. Svejk74 (talk) 09:59, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Except the Swedish blodpudding isn't a sausage, but differs from black pudding in that the Swedish variety uses rye as main component, and other spices. BP OMowe (talk) 16:42, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

Place of origin
The British Isles is in the 'place of origin' section. It is a better descriptor as it; removes unnecessary extra disambiguation and includes all areas of the British Isles where the pudding as part of a traditional cooked breakfast comes from, not just the two main islands of the Isles, or the two countries of the UK and the republic.Halbared (talk) 21:08, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * As well as the reasons above, there's bring partisan politics into something where it doesn't exist. The infobox states, 'place of origin' which is not tied to nation states, because black pudding is older than that, but the Channels islands and Isle of Man which are a part of the Isles are being excluded where the tradition also holds, you can't just exclude the other parts of the Isles. These places are not apart of the two main islands nor of the two countries.Halbared (talk) 08:39, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I see the 'place of origin' is titled as 'country' in the template, I can see this is inaccurate. I'm going to self-revert for the moment, if anyone can help with this template?Halbared (talk) 08:45, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

The Irish can be very touchy about the term 'The British Isles'. It's generally best to avoid using it if at all possible - 'Great Britain and Ireland' is safer phrasing. --Ef80 (talk) 15:47, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
