In more seriousness, I do smuggle in foods I like but have to do it very carefully and choose them carefully so that it makes sense in the Narnian context.
It's a bit silly to write characters who enjoy your own favourite food; it would be silly for me to write about a Narnian character whose favourite food is my favourite Moravian Wallachian soup... But if your character ought to enjoy their food, it makes sense to write it from the position where you do enjoy it yourself, in a "write what you know" kind of sense.Statistics: Posted by marmota-b — Sun Jun 07, 2020 5:57 am

And I shamelessly wrote them into one of my Narnia stories.
... which reminds me in a roundabout way that last year, I wrote a whole story about the marmalade in Mrs Beaver's marmalade rolls, and did some research into what those rolls may have looked like, and never got around to trying them out...

So cool Ariel! I never really knew was a fool (in the food sense) was before 
That's such a great way to celebrate HHB's birthday.
If you made a Narnian cook book, I would buy it.
I wasn't familiar with it either at, Swanny. That's such a great way to celebrate HHB's birthday.If you made a Narnian cook book, I would buy it.
I have the Narnia cookbook on Kindle and I could pass along any recipes if you wanted, Ariel. Those also look very tasty, Ariel!I had no clue what it was either until I looked it up for this!
Heh, I’m flattered, but I’m so dependent on others’ recipes that none of them would be mine. It does make me curious about the Narnia cookbooks that are out there, though.

Pudding in the old sense of the word is a kind of cake with a thick sauce poured over it. I think eventually people started just making the thick sauce and that's what we call pudding now.(exactly how many puddings are there and what exactly qualifies something to be a pudding anyway? Best I can figure is that it’s poured into a mold, baked, and holds its shape when taken out. Can someone more versed in English food explain?)
When my grandmother used to make Christmas pudding, it was a kind of cake cooked by steaming in jars with raisins and grated carrot and potato in the batter, and then served with a thick caramel sauce.
And then there's Yorkshire pudding which is basically a kind of bread that you pour gravy on.
