Funnily enough, I knew someone who used to enjoy it with custard (!!!)

Clearly they were a philistine at best and probably certifiable at worst.

Traditionally it is served as a starter with gravy and Yorkshire salad which is onions, lettuce, vinegar, sugar and mint. Delicious

It’s a main course and should come with a side order of best roast beef, veg, a bucket of roasties and enough gravy to drown a medium size squirrel

Officially a starter.

Now an accepted main.

An occasional dessert too.

I've even been known to have them as a snack

Americans call custard "pudding". Which we would put on pudding, but not all puddings are the kinds of foods one would put American "pudding" on.

Black pudding and pease pudding for instance would not go well with American pudding. Yorkshire pudding is one of the most important food groups and needs gravy on it, not pudding. These are all actual puddings. Its just that not all puddings are desserts.

Similarly some pies are desserts and work well with American pudding, such as mince pies, which have fruit in them, not mince. A mince beef pie however, like a Yorkshire pudding, would work better with gravy.

I hope this clears things up

It’s an interesting the word pudding, with many references. To add to yours above. Traditionally it meant anything sweet or savoury that is boiled or steamed in intestines or bag. It has also been used in the past to describe food cooked by the lower class, as it used cheap base ingredients, rustic but filling, which the likes of bread & butter pudding & Yorkshire pudding fall into.

One dish my mum grew up with and I’ve had once, never again, was sausage pudding. Which is basically sausages boiled in milk

We had it for starters when I was young but now we have it as part of the main course. A Sunday roast isn't a Sunday roast without a Yorkshire pudding. Ha e to be homemade too.

Something being a pudding doesn't mean it's a dessert, it's the method of cooking.

If just that in England our most common puddings are sponge based and are desserts, but there are plenty that aren't.
