Depends on context. For example people would say 'what's for dessert'?. Or 'what's for pudding'?. Or in some areas 'what's for afters"?. All the same. A lot would say pudding though.

Pudding doesn't mean a particular food stuff , just means any old dessert in this case . Just in the same way as referring to a shop as toffee shop or asking 'do you want a toffee'?, does not mean it's limited to only literally toffees

Because it *is* a pudding. Puddings are defined as such by how they're made. They can be sweet (fig pudding, Christmas pudding etc.), or savoury (black/white pudding, suet pudding). They are typically quite dense and stodgy, and are boiled or steamed. They have been a staple in Britain for centuries, because they are easy to make, very filling, and can be made with all sorts of ingredients and herbs/spices. Most have fallen out of fashion, as their usual function as a poverty food is no longer necessary, but some, such as black pudding and Christmas pudding have become ingrained in British culture.

See, when Americans hear sausage they rightfully assume a product is meat based. Turns out black pudding is unfortunately not anything like actual sausage or pudding
