Tapioca Pudding

This may surprise some people, but until yesterday I'd never had tapioca pudding. Only now do I realize how much of a catastrophe this actually is. Tapioca pudding= fluffy, sweet, vanilla-y, pudding-y yummy deliciousness. And it's easy to make, always a plus when you're craving something sweet and dessert like but you don't have the time or energy to bake. It literally takes about 10 minutes to make, and all you have to do is follow the directions on the box. You can eat it as soon as it finishes cooking, because it tastes amazing hot or cold. The texture is lumpy but a good lumpy- the lumps are smooth like rice pudding. It's springy to bite into and then melts. It tastes like vanilla and sugar and tapioca pudding. Comfort food times 10.

Now one question remains... what the heck is tapioca??? I still haven't found out.
