Just been listening to talk sport, and a subject came up on pease pudding.They had never heard of pease pudding and ask the question was it Northern food.Surely they must have had pease pudding and duck with a morrells pork pie, or a ham and pease pudding sarnie. Soft Southern tw@ts.

Pease pudding is fucking awful, as are Morrells pork pies, you might as well eat the foul shite with faggots and offal on toast

I think they call it Guacamole down south.

I eat pease pudding on anything

I agree, had a Ham and Pease Pudding Roll at the Old Mill House the first time I went to Hartlepool - most vilest thing I have ever tasted !

that's cos you're a southern puff then innit guv'nor cor blimey and no mistake

Jellied Eels or tripe anyone


Wheres the smilie that pukes?

Parmo, there's no need to call people that, thank you.

To believe that evey person who is born south of the Watford Gap eats Jellied Eels etc is just a plain sterotype.

I wasn't born in London, I was born in Kent - there is a differenceas we don't all go around eeting jellied eels or cockles.

This is Gillingham, not Southend-on-Sea !

now I know why people get either;
a) homicidal
b) suicidal

Never heard of Margate the home of the jellied eel and other southern seaside delicacies? Good job you're doing french and not geography.

Ah see you've admitted defeat Mr Poolie of Kent

I love pease pudding. You can get the tinned stuff in supermarkets down here so someone apart from me must buy it.....

As for PoK's laughable assertion that not everyone in the south east eats jellied eels and pie and mash, I'm speechless. In 22 years of living down here everyone who originates from the south east that I've ever met does* so he must be an exception.

They certainly know how to live down here!

* - For the record, that includes people from Gillingham and other parts of Kent.

No no I haven't admitted defeat - I've only just seen your post.

I've been to Margate a few times and not once of I seen somebody from Kent eat any of that.

Fish and Chips, yeah. Jellied Eels - maybe only Londoners on day trips to the Costa del Kent.

Yeah, cause you're in East London so there all Cockneys but here in Medway and North Kent, nobody hardly eats anything like that because most of us aren't Cockneys.

The major things that Kent is famous for gastronomically is it's hops and beer locally produced in the Shepherd Neame brewery of Faversham or the famous oysters of Whitstable, that Julius Caesar loved so much he'd import them back to Rome.

pease pudding hot,
pease puding cold,
pease pudding in the pot,
nine days old!

I was once in that Walter Willson's near the Catcote when there was the most blood-curdling scream. Turned out one of the girls had half-fallen into a great pan of pease pudding that was cooking on the stove at the back.
Never felt the same about pease pudding after that

I haven't always lived in East London! I used to live in Muswell Hill. Anyway I've done an extensive survey with graphs and shit and the conclusion says, "A high percentage of people from south east England like eels, pie and mash and "seafood" various." So there we are, evidence-based!

This can't be the The Bunker, it sounds almost useful. I'll have a go tomorrow.

Cheers Mutley! I'll definitely be giving that a go.
