John,
Don't know what bit of the UK (maybe north of Stafford?) calls spotted
dick, treacle tart: according to my better half, they are different.
S/Dick is a steamed suet based pudding with raisins, and treacle tart is a
pastry with treacle filling. Both are jolly good, I might add, 'though I'd
plump for the cornflake version of the treacle tart if I had to choose ;)
