Yorkshire Pudding: the real thing (not just "popovers")
Small world!! 
But being there early in the morning, you did miss a treat. That's when they keep bringing another batch out of the oven, and when they are fresh... YUM!
You'll just have to return...
(We stay at a relatively new (renovated) Inn almost next door, and that is mighty dangerous. We take turns bringing a few back to the room.

We are just back a few days ago from an early holiday cruise, and one evening, in the main dining room, we were surprised to see roast beef and "Yorkshire Pudding".
We cancelled our specialty reservations just tor this one item, having not seen it listed anywhere (other than as Popovers, at Pie In The Sky) for so very long.
It was a bit overdone, and didn't have much of the "eggy pudding" part, but was nice and crispy on top.
I should have asked for more, but we were already eating our way across the Caribbean.
We might just need a quick trip to Woods Hole soon.
Or... I could spend a bit more time in the kitchen... but I could never create what Pie In The Sky creates! [drool]

Another pudding-like opportunity
I have been a voracious reader of flyer talk and several well know travel/points blogs. I remember reading about a guy that bought a ton of pudding to reap millions of airlines points or another who spent the day driving rental cars down the street between rental agencies effectively hacking the system for a large number of points.
Does opportunity like this still exist? I just feel like I missed that boat.

The offer did not set a limit on the number of times you could redeem this.
At the same time there was a qualifying Gillette product (ladies razors) on sale for $3.92. Theoretically you could buy 1000 of these razors (cost $3,920), get 1 million Flybuys points and thus get $5,000 off your supermarket shopping. This would effectively profit you $1,080.
After 2 days Flybuys changed the conditions to limit the number of bonuses to 10 per person but will honor bonuses for purchases made prior to the change.
