5. Have you thought of trying it?
I mean how do you know you don't like it if you haven't tried it yet. It's really tasty!

6. Well, I haven't tried the spotted, but I wasn't impressed with what I have had.
I don't eat meat anyway. Only fish.

7. There's no meat in it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotted_dick

Spotted Dick is a steamed suet pudding containing dried fruit, usually currants. The dessert is especially popular in the United Kingdom, usually served either with custard or with butter and brown sugar. Spotted refers to the currants (which resemble spots), and Dick may be a corruption of the word dough. It is also known as Spotted Dog, Plum Bolster, and Spotted Richard.

Most recipes for spotted dick include the following:

White bread crumbs
Self-raising flour
Shredded suet
Raisins or currants
Salt
Nutmeg
Ginger
Mace
Citrus fruit peel
Eggs
Brandy
sugar
butter
Custard

8. I think suet might be animal fat.

28. According to the dictionary suet is the hard fatty tissues
around the kidneys of cattle and sheep. So I guess you could classify it as meat.

24. I like something which is similar, "1/2 hour pudding"
It's basically flour, sugar, baking powder, raisins cooked in a sauce of hot water, brown sugar and butter. Very, very yummy.

31. I REALLY wish you'd stop calling matcom that.
It hurts his feelings and he's liable to put a snarky reference to you in his sig.
