What worries me is the concept of deconstructed foods. Applied to pudding it would go something like this presentation:
1 Plain, unflavoured cooked flour+egg pudding
2 A side of pudding flavoured sauce, like apple sauce
3 The missing bulk sweet ingredients that should have gone in the pudding e.g. vanilla essence, dried fruit and spices all mixed up as another side.
To eat it, you get a bit 1, a bit of 3 and a bit of 2.
As a metaphor, it describes the human condition, but you always wonder if the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
