[Request] Please add Spotted Dick to the game!

I had no idea that such a desert existed but really hope that they add it.
If anything to see in what they gonna rename it to avoid "offending" anyone.

Is this an example of the famous British Humour? Thinking up such names for food?
BTW, I'm pretty sure this Thread was created on purpose.
Having "Dick" in the Title and the Mods can't do anything about it because it's a real thing in GB? Right?



You were fully aware of what you did. Right?

Guess not a fan of toad in the hole either?

Something tells me this was partially intentional....and it worked.

When I first read the title, I thought "Is this gonna be like that Miqo'te thread?". But then I saw Theo's name and said "This is gonna be gooooood".

You will not leave the table untill you finish all the di... well, nevermind.

Fellow brit - I will only want this ingame if it comes with custard! You can't have one and not the other.

There's nothing disgusting about it. I have a very good friend named Dick who I play with on a daily basis. It isn't exactly an obscure name. There's a drink called 'Bloody Mary' so it isn't at all unusual for cuisine to be named after actual names.

...and make them a proper roast dinner with some toad in the hole and gravy.
Food of the gods.

Maybe it could be added as a "Bmite Sandwich' (thus avoiding name copyright issues) with the description "A mysterious alchemist from the southern islands apparently created the thick black spread that coats these otherwise ordinary slices of bread from yeast and various herbs and spices, that is something of an institution in his homeland, and hopes those in Eorzea may share his enthusiasm for the spread. So far there have been few takers..." ;)

As for lamingtons, I'm sure coconut or something like it exists on Hydaelyn - there's plenty of tropical type areas around and I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard or lore breaking to implement. :D

I can even see the description for it: "Lamington: A cube of soft foamy spongecake with a centre of aldgoat cream and rolanberry jam, dipped in molten chocolate and coated in dissicated Thavnarian coconut. A delicacy of the southern islands, although a culinarian from Garlemald claims it was named after a certain Ilsabardian noble, but these claims are bogus..." ;)[/size]

I thought as much xD. I spent some time down under. Nowhere near as long as I'd have liked, but definitely enough time to acquire a list of some of my favorite Aussie foods. Admittedly though, I could never acquire the taste for vegemite. My ex who was from there would just slather the stuff on toast and margarine, and I could barely handle the thinnest layer you could possibly spread lol. Your descriptions of it and lamingtons though are spot on. The game would just have to implement a coconut, which would be ezpz. La Noscea can grow pineapples, and that just seems like the right area to have them. There aren't really any places so far on the first that could support palms.

Ugh! Now I'm hungry for lamingtons and spotted dick.

You guys have such cool names for food!

The only things I can think of off the top of my head that we have are maybe Sloppy Joes and Frog Eye Salad. :D
