Meat and Pudding

Are there any Pink Floyd fans out there? If so, you'll recognize the reference to Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" in the photo below. This is a place I want to shop. Any butcher who makes a classic rock reference in the meat department is okay with me.

For those who don't know, at the very end of "Another Brick in the Wall", a father is heard yelling this to his son:

"If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat!?" "You! Yes, you! Behind the bikesheds, stand still laddie!"

In England, pudding is what we call cake. This father is telling his son if he doesn't eat his dinner, he won't get any dessert. The lyrics don't really mean anything. It's just a funny ending to a really good song.
