I've had haggis twice...each time indelibly stamped in my olfactory memory and taste buds..I'me fairly adventurous..like you..when it comes to food..but it's just not my cup of tea..but it's definitely something you should experience for yourself..especially if part of a special dining out experience..the presentation of the haggis is a big part of the whole experience..

BTW...I liked Vegemite. Duran's on my bucket list....is the smell/taste really as bad as they say? I've heard it compared to decomposing flesh...

I think I would have enjoyed haggis, but I don't care for lamb.

Never smelled a durian, but I do remember they are not allowed on the Singapore subway system,

I love haggis, IF its done properly, the biggest problem usually is that its overcooked and left dry and heavy. It should always be light.

Decomposing flesh is a good comparison. The smell is so foul that Singapore government has banned it from virtually every restaurant, hotel, club, etc. about the only place you can buy it is off some cart or in an open air market.
