O.K. Bolt (tapioca pudding)

“Bolt” was old New York City restaurant slang for “pudding,” and “O.K. bolt” meant “tapioca pudding.” The terms were cited in an 1888 newspaper, reporting on the strange orders at a restaurant on Ann Street.
 
It is not known how widespread the “bolt” slang term was for “pudding,” and the reason for the name is unknown as well. Other “bolt” citations have not been found.
