Tribal People Try French Custard
About this video
Pudding in front of villagers from rural Punjab, Pakistan — that's the whole Tribal People Try recipe, and it keeps working because nothing is scripted.
What is pudding?
Pudding means two things: the American set custard — chocolate or vanilla, spooned from a cup — and the whole family of British puddings, from sticky toffee to bread and butter pudding, Yorkshire pudding and black pudding.
What to watch for
Soft, sweet, spoonable desserts are close to home; kheer and firni are exactly that. The British savoury 'puddings' are the confusing ones, and black pudding is left alone once its ingredients are explained.
The comparison they always make
Kheer, firni and custard are everyday village desserts, so a chocolate pudding cup is judged as a slightly different kheer — and often preferred by the children in the room.
This episode

Did the tribe like the pudding?
Watch to the end — nothing is scripted, and when something doesn't suit them they say so. Kheer, firni and custard are everyday village desserts, so a chocolate pudding cup is judged as a slightly different kheer — and often preferred by the children in the room.

Yes — this is the 7th of 9 pudding videos. The first was "This Tribal People Eating Jell-O Challenge Will Make Your Day" in November 2021.
Where was this video filmed?
In rural Punjab, Pakistan, where the participants live. The videos are recorded in the village rather than in a studio.
