Thread Name: BS: White pudding - Gaelic word for?
Subject: BS: White pudding - Gaelic word for?
Hoping some Scottish 'catter can tell me if there is a Gaelic word for this delicious (YMMV) oatmeal-suet-onion pudding. We ate it a lot as a child, and my family called it 'Merrican'. Friend of mine calls it 'Marric'. Neither of us has a clue if either is a Gaelic word for the stuff or some odd Cape Bretonism.
