Move over Burns - haggis is English, historian claims

[Morgoth]

I like haggis too, I didn't used to but it's sort of grown on me as I've grown up.

 

[Yrkoon]

so some one wrote about haggis in a english cook book? maybe they realised the awesomeness of the haggis? it proves nothing.

what's next the english want irn-bru to go with it?

 

[Sonea Fifer]

So very, very wrong; tis food of the gods.

Exactly what I was thinking. Haggis is fantastic.

Couldn't agree more - lovely when cooked correctly, though you do have to get up early in the morning to catch them in their natural habitat:

 

[Ross1234]

You found a wild haggis! How did you manage to catch it? My freind trained for 5 years just to be able to track them.

hahahaha quality theres so many americans i have spoke to that think haggis is an animal and i just play along with it

 

[Ross1234]

It is an animal...

You feed it all the ingredients, cook then remove its stomach and serve.

 

[Yrkoon]

yeh but i had em believing they were tartan in colour etc

the cheap 2 i have downstairs seem to be lamb and pig guts so 2 animals they dont taste like proper ones either but good for a quick munch after drinking, which ill be doing later

 

[Sonea Fifer]

It is an animal....

Of course it is - with two legs shorter than the other two allowing them to run around the steep slopes of the Scottish mountains early in the morning.

Remember the clockwise ones taste better than the anticlockwise ones

I actually had two believing that in a pub.

Can't remember the nationality, but its true

 

[Ross1234]

Nooooo! Don't be silly! Clockwise ones are boring. You can tell a person with a good taste for food if they know which orientation of haggis is best, and that is anticlockwise.

 

[Cybermyk]

I've only ever seen one deep fried in batter and covered in brown sauce

Guess I'm not going to Scotland again LOL

 

[Kennysevenfold]

The English just want everything tbh

 

[mame]

Sssh, leave him be, he was quoting Michael McIntyre in hopes of being witty.

Erm, no I wasn't ??? What Have I missed?

But not England eh?

What about Football's coming home? (leaving aside the fact that the Scots invented that too and was stolen)

Can't help you there, I hate football. I was talking about things like the English language.

 

[Killerkebab]

Look at the Italians and pasta, everyone knows the Chinese invented pasta but it's still considered to be an Italian food.

Wait, what?

 

[Cosimo]

Can you buy a haggis supper in England?

No you cannot!

So beat it you ******** **** ** **** *****

... and you know what to do with your haggis.

 

[sixty]

Tarmac, Telephones, Skarves, TVs, Tyres, Golf, Postage Stamp, Raincoat (of some kind)

As per my Scotland T-shirt bought from a random tourist store lol

Don't forget riflling, and the pnuematic tyre.

 

[The Dread Pirate]

This is recent NEWS?!?!?!? I've known this for years!

 

[Fenris]

Looks like a disgusting skin sack full of parts of an animal you didn't know existed and tastes like the inside of a drain.

The Scots can keep that abomination.

 

[Thrash]

Anyone who has eaten a sausage/hot dog/pie should not be turning their noses up at haggis. Generally it is those who have not tasted it who are the people who say how bad it is. Open your minds folks and get your gums round a nice spicy haggis.

 

[Skidder]

Let them have their haggis, without that all they have is heroine, stabbing and an over-inflated sense of the importance of new year.
