On Sunday, our church had a fellowship lunch they entitled, "Spuds and Puds!" Spuds stands for jacket potatoes (which we Americans know as baked potatoes), and puds is short for pudding, which is used synonymously with dessert around here (as in, "Would you like some pudding?" "Sure, I'd love some cake.").
Anyway, back to the spuds. The British love their jacket potatoes. It's on just about every menu we've seen around here. They also like to pile them high with toppings... toppings such as baked beans, coronation chicken, prawns (like shrimp), tuna & sweetcorn, chili, or bolognese sauce.
I didn't really feel that adventurous on Sunday with my spud. I went for the standard sour cream, cheddar cheese, and bacon. I know... I'm not following the rule of "When in Rome..."
Well, how about you? Do any of these topping sound good to you?
I Am.

Ummmm, not really. Beans on top of a baked tater? I guess I am just too Americanized...I would always go with the standard sour cream and butter myself, although I have recently found putting salsa on potatoes not too bad, but thats just a way to make it fancy and lower in fat than the sour cream and butter.

No, I think not. Broccoli and cheese is about as exotic as I get.
I'm weird...not a big fan of baked potatoes. But love scalloped, mashed and fries--all the unhealthy versions in other words.
GROSS!! I would never ruin a perfectly good baked potato by adding anything other than tons of sour cream.
