This is a definite 'Marmite' moment. Rice pudding is one of those British gastronomic institutions that causes controversy wherever it goes. Like Gordon Ramsay, but sweeter.
I have made, and eaten, 'real' rice pudding, and it is a completely different beast. So we won't mention it again within the confines of this particular blog post.
But Ambrosia Creamed Rice, in its blue and green packaging, either in a tin or in a little yogurt pot, is nursery food of the highest order. Herself, obviously, refuses to be in the same room as a pot of Ambrosia Creamed Rice, but I buy one for myself when she is out or away, and enjoy every creamy mouthful.
