In that case probably no salt and with sugar or jam! Lol

Haggis has to be Cockburns of Dingwall.

Oh must have salt! Lol
Actually quite like the veggie haggis........just not keen on the real stuff because eating lungs etc has never really appealed. Yuck.

Once had a very enjoyable afternoon in the Whisky Club in Edinburgh, some terrific tasting whiskey that nobody ever hears about, well worth a slurp or three..!!

I have no problem with pretty much any part of the an animal. I'd like the animal to be *dead* first...

Latest fad with chefs is using the whole animal and not wasting their existence on the planet. Offal from a healthy animal minced up with oats and spices etc I will eat long before genetically modified food full of chemicals.

Providing it tastes good!!

You've obviously never eaten andouille. Given the choice of that stinking sh!t or genetically modified food full of chemicals I'll go for the latter every time and twice on Sunday's.

It was a wonder to behold when they wheeled that out Benny; ever thankful I recognised the word 'canard' on the menu QUACK!

It's not my favourite thing, and not something I'd chose to eat again, this is true. Other than that, I'm pretty ambivalent. Very not keen on GM foods though

Tbh, it was something I didn't eat the first time; the smell was gut churningly appalling. It was like sitting down to dinner in an Indian sewer.

Whoaaaaaa there Benny, not even Indian sewers smell that bad.

First and only time I had andouille, it made me gag. I'm one that will eat just about anything (tarantulas, locusts, fermented eggs, fertilised eggs (balut) etc) and I was billy big bananas when I heard it was 'only a sausage'. But the smell, dear lord!!

That looks like black pudding?

No it is haggis. It is just shaped into the sausage shape then lightly battered and deep fried. Brings out the flavour of the haggis even more. Roughly 3/4 of a pound in weight and big enough you have to break it in two to fit on a plate.

Yeah I have had haggis like this often but it just looked very dark. Maybe just the photo?
Now if we are talking Scottish culinary delights then how many have had the deep fried Mars bar?

... or spicy haggis, which is also deep fried but a squarer shape, not the traditional pudding shape.
