The modern usage of the word ''pudding'' to mean a dessert has evolved from the almost exclusive use of the term to describe a savoury dish, specifically those created using a process similar to [[sausage]]s, where meat and other ingredients in a mostly liquid form are encased and then steamed or boiled to set the contents. The most famous examples still surviving are [[black pudding]] and [[haggis]]. Other savoury dishes include [[suet pudding]] and [[steak and kidney pudding]]. Boiled or steamed pudding was a common main course aboard ships in the [[Royal Navy]] during the 18th and 19th centuries; pudding was used as the primary dish in which daily rations of [[flour]] and [[suet]] were employed.
