I wasn't a fan of black pudding when I ate meat but I'm going to try the various vegetarian and vegan recipies. I used to love eating white pudding, perhaps I can figure out how to make a vegetarian one.

What do ye think?

Why do you think vegetarians and vegans are ridiculous?

Some meat eaters get squeamish about how black and white pudding are made too. The Lancashire one is being made by a traditional company to try and get back the squeamish meat eaters and to open up the vegetarian/vegan market.

I'm a vegetarian/semi-vegan (I don't stick to Veganism 100%, I just use recipies) but I don't think I am ridiculous... I think what is ridiculous is the recipe! See, you can be veggie and still have common sense!

P.S No joke, I have heard of vegetarian haggis... WTH!?

VEGETARIAN HAGGIS. The biggest oxymoron I have ever read, how the hell do you imitate sheep's organs?

I've only ever bothered with Vegan substitute sausages (can't remember how they're made, but they taste alright), this has now got me curious as to what other vegan meat-alternatives taste like...
Could be 'interesting' :D

Good point it's the meat eaters that are ridicilious they'll east steak but wont eat offal whats up with that ? as a meat eater |I ate everthying and why wouldn't you ?

Anyway back to OP , as a vegan I would like to try that product though it's unavailable to me here :cry: their was a chef in the uk who's name escapes me has a vego and omni restaurant and in his cook book (omni) he uses the vegie one was as he prefers the flavour, texture etc ironically it's made by a butcher who also makes regular black pudding.

Anyway they use beetroot to replicate the blood, you'd be surprised how easily it is to replace these meatie products with a vegan substitute, I had Tartex recently :D and it had the taste and flavour of the pork version you get in Europe, it made me a little homesick.

mmmm black pudding...

Have only eaten white pudding once years ago, must give it another whirl. May even try the veggie BP too, just to see if the reports about the Lancs pud being so very close to the original are true.
