David Taylor (1817–1867) was a 19th-century Scottish poet, musician and songwriter. His most well-known work (or rather the phrase derived from it) is "The Proof of the Pudding". Working in the Scottish dialect his work was clearly influenced by Robert Burns. Like Burns he wrote in the true Scottish language of Doric which was usually wrongly seen as a corrupted version of English, and despite being the spoken language of the majority was not accorded the respect that the minority language of Gaelic was afforded.
