Nothing like a good haggis and bok choi to fill the tummy.

Are they going to make haggis? Real haggis? Because I thought it was illegal, as it typically contains cow lung, which is banned due to BSE concerns. I'd love to have some real haggis.

I don't think haggis has cow in it, but yeah, use of some sheep organs is restricted.

Hey, they've been having these up here in Vancouver for quite a while. I haven't managed to get to one, but I understand they're quite the happenin' shindig (if you can get with the trifecta of bagpipes, haggis & poetry).

Personally, I prefer ripping the lungs out with my bare hands, Fnarf.

It's mostly oatmeal, actually.

Nice to see it spreading down south there. =) I recommend haggis won tons, personally. Realistically, it's just lamb meatloaf.
