News; game: songs with "eyes"; which 'toy hall of fame' finalist would you vote for this year?; goodbye/fun facts....National butterscotch pudding day. First there was butterscotch candy...which goes as far back as 1817, members of England's Royal Family ate butterscotch candy as a dessert. Although several theories lay claim to the creation of butterscotch, its origin remains elusive. One such theory claims that the name 'scotch' was used to denote the cutting or scoring of the candy into pieces before it hardens. Others believe that 'scotch' is a derivative of 'scorched,' and refers to the heating of sugar at high temperatures. So...butterscotch pudding is just as much of a mystery as the confectionery that gives it its name. The origins of the custardy dessert continue to divide opinion. The creamy treat could very well have been created in the United States using the flavor created by the British. Whether made at home from scratch, mixed up from an instant box, or eaten from the premade cups at the grocery store, butterscotch pudding is a delightful treat to enjoy on this day–or any day.
