   The first verse refers to "tuppenny rice" and "treacle" which are food. [6] At the time, one pound of rice pudding cost twopence (pronounced tuppence). Treacle is a delicious gooey syrup used as a topper to sweeten the rice pudding. [28] A modern writer notes, it was "the cheapest and nastiest food" available to London's poor. [6]
