Do you know of an ASL sign for
pudding? It is one of my son's favorite foods and I can't seem to
find a sign for it anywhere.
Thank you for your wonderful
website. I look forward to receiving the CD soon.

Ellen,
There is no strongly established sign for pudding. There are various
ways to handle it:
1. Spell it the first time in the conversation, then sign "soup" after
that for the remainder of the conversation.
2. Sign SWEET + SOUP
3. Initialize the sign SOUP with a "P" handshape.
Methods one and two would be considered ASL. Method three would
generally be considered "Signed English."
