Tapioca, semolina, ?sago?, coconut cake type puddings, stewed prunes, stewed plums, anything with dried fruit. Yet, l eat plums and custard now but l can’t eat them fresh. I can also eat things with dried fruit in them now.

I can’t remember which pudding was ‘frog spawn’?
Tapioca.

Ugh, lt’s the horrible globules, l remember!

I have just remembered sweet milky Macaroni.... another Ugh!!
Sago and Tapioca look almost exactly the same even though they come from different plants. Either could be described as frog spawn

I'd forgotten about macaroni as a milk pudding... Yum!

Re: Do You Ever Cook Yourself A ‘School Dinner’?

As a child I ate everything I was given even the dreaded school sago which was like white frog spawn....yuk!! My favourite was apple crumble and I make that now especially when we have apples from the little tree in the garden.....

Edited to say I just saw the post referring to white frog spawn and I will how to Judds superior knowledge....yes it was Tapioca
