It's usually very sweet, often with marshmallows on top.
Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Quick googling shows a similarity in recipes between casserole and pudding. Does casserole basically mean what's cooked in the dish?

Yeah, I think so. Usually a casserole would be savory, often with a cream sauce (aka cream of mushroom soup or similar), but for sweet potato, casserole and pudding would be pretty much the same thing.

What Jesse said. I don't like the texture or the sweet+ that texture.

Well, the texture is pretty hard to avoid. But the sugar can be controlled. I don't remember the texture of American sweet potato pudding. Is it dense or fluffy?

Potato-y texture should not be sweet. Ever.

Well, sweet potatoes and regular potatoes have different textures. Also, the inherent sweetness of the sweet potato does lend itself to playing with sweetness, like squash. Sweet potato pie, always excellent- I like it better than pumpkin. I don't like the marshmallow action, but maple and molasses plays well with sweet potato.
I guess I just consider sweet potato more of a peer of squash, despite the name.
(I just made an awesome squash puree dish with maple syrup last night.)

Why can't I find any vaseline in this house?!! Somewhere, there are a tub and a tube and I have no idea where.

It was delicious! Used three different squashes.
