Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Pouding chômeur ("unemployed man's pudding", often translated idiomatically as "poor man's pudding") is a dessert that was created during the early years of the Great Depression[1] in Quebec, Canada.
Today, it is casually served as a regional dessert, perhaps being a bit more popular during the saison des sucres, when maple sap is collected and processed and is usually part of the offerings during a meal at a sugar shack, but it is not specifically a maple dessert.
In Australia, a similar dessert known as "self saucing pudding" (or often just called pudding) exists, although it is now more commonly sold in baking mix packages alongside other cakes, rather than be prepared at home.
