I have previously posted my pet peeve about pudding mixes and pancake
mixes. The good mixes still require the addition of milk and eggs,
which are the most expensive ingredients. The vanilla and butterscotch
puddings I make from scratch are infinitely better than the mixes. With
chocolate you have the added cost of the chocolate, but even though that
jacks up the price of scratch, the chocolate flavour is so much better.
