William Henry “Bill” Cosby, Jr. (born July 12, 1937) is an American stand-up comedian, actor, author, television producer, educator, musician and activist.
Comedian Bill Cosby is associated with Jell-O and, more famously, Jell-O pudding and he appeared in many commercials promoting both.
The word pudding is believed to come from the French boudin, originally from the Latin botellus, meaning “small sausage”, referring to encased meats used in Medieval European puddings.
