Actually, that sounds good, Eala. It's like stuffing a chicken or turkey, well, sort of.

What is suet? Is it a grain?

Back to the dictionary: "The hard fatty tissues around the kidneys of cattle and sheep, used in cooking and for making tallow." Rather like lard (which is from a hog).

"Suet" is what I'd like to do to haggis for existing, but then I'd have to hire some fancy-pants lawyer like xs so I won't bother.

Note to Eala: I admit I've never actually eaten haggis. But I don't want to, thanks.

More like a sausage, in that the covering supplies no meat. And a taste very much like liver.

Wife & I stopped at a lunch-counter before crossing the bridge to Skye (in Scotland). She saw "haggis" up on the board, along with the pizza and burgers and bangers and whatever, and ordered it. The proprietor almost wouldn't give it to her, knowing American tastes. (But she's had it many times.)
