    Sneem Black puddings are made by two butchers Burns and O'Sullivans. Each have their own recipe, but very similar. Hence, the Regional status.
    Oddly some of the cheaper puddings have little oatmeal, TMK.
    Might be pearl barley in the Clon one, must check that out. Don't know if De Roiste is distributed nationally. McCarthys, Kanturk is a good pudding.

    I like the Dunnes from Wicklow white pudding. The texture though is quite soft/crumbly

    I like the Kelly’s pudding, especially the white.
    I also find the Clonakilty products overrated, all of them.

    Managed to get the McCarthys in Dunnes and had some earlier. It really is a top drawer pudding, was absolutely delicious. I far preferred it to the Sneem I had last week which was very heavy on oatmeal, I ended up binning the last third of it as I just didnt like it.

    Looking at the McCarthys ingredients the first two listed are bacon (36%) and pork (88%). There is oatmeal and pearl barley in it too but not in such big quantities. Also there are spices and water kibbled onion whatever that might be

    Kibbled onion is just Re-hydrated dried onions.

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.

    I presume 88% of the bacon 36% is pork? The subsets can be tricky to read.

    That ingredients list is allover the place.
    Open brackets that don't close, close brackets that don't open.
    It even suggests that blood is an ingredient of the rusk. I'm surprised they haven't been pulled up on it.

    Much as I like this pudding, it isn't a very "bloody" pud.
