blood pudding

British breakfast meat

Blood pudding is a sausage made by cooking blood—usually from pigs—with a filler such as oatmeal, barley, or breadcrumbs, then stuffing it into a casing.

A staple of British and Irish cuisine, where it's called black pudding, and found in variations across Europe.

Often sliced and fried as part of a traditional breakfast: The full English came with eggs, bacon, and blood pudding.
