Yes, I did like it quite a bit.  I had it quite often when I was preteen.  I 
stopped eating it in my late teens. My wife doesn't like it, so I didn't buy 
it.  I have bought it in Canada now and again, although I find the Canadian 
one doesn't have as many fat lumps in as the English one and tastes slightly 
different.  Having to cook it is a pain, too.  Last time I went to London, a 
few years ago, I made sure I had the proper fry up for breakfast including 
the black pudding.

The only red sausage I was familiar with was savaloys.  They taste like a 
cross between cheap bologna and cheap hot dogs and I never liked those.  I 
did like faggots and pease pudding, though.
