I’m a Scot, and I think Haggis is revolting.
I didn’t know you had to catch a Haggis..................
Yeah, then you gotta skin them, pluck them,scale them. You know.
I plucked a rooster about a month ago. Nasty job..................
Gluten free and vegan haggis especially! :)
Well, the swedes and potatoes sound good; sort of like colcannon...
They have very cute faces; but when you stuff them into a pig’s stomach, they tend to squirm around.
I thought it was a sheep or goat stomach?...................
You’re probably right - sheep, along with bits of said sheep’s innards in the ‘pudding’.
As I said, it’s revolting.
Lang may yer lum reek!
It sounds revolting but I bet it tastes good.
Heck, a hot dog is revolting if you read the ingredients................
My son went to University of Edinburgh for grad school.
When my kids were little I had a “”try one bite” rule on any new recipe I served.
Visiting my son in Scotland he order haggis at a restaurant one night. I didn’t want to eat it and the “try one bite” rule came back to bite me!!
Pretty bland but if people go through a time when food is scarce, you eat anything edible.
€27.50 ($30.15) per person isn’t too bad, really...............
I just looked it up and they use artificial casings now........
“colcannon”
I’ve got some cabbage in the freezer and been wondering what to do with it.
Now I know. THX!
