Well I have to tell you, when I was a boy, after dessert had been finished at Sunday lunch my late father and uncle (both born and bred Englishmen) used to eat any leftover yorkshire puddings filled with thick yellow cream and strawberry jam. In fact they used to fight over them.

Probably more amazing was the fact that both lived on to a ripe old age despite a diet which today would be considered disgustingly unhealthy, if not life threatening.
