Yea. I wish I could be with my family there. I don't care what it's made of, It's yummy. Not to mention it's a good excuse to get a fine bottle of "The National Product".
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o' the puddin-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy o' a grace
As lang's my arm.
The groaning trencher there ye fill,
Your hurdies like a distant hill,
Your pin wad help to mend a mill
In time o' need,
While thro' your pores the dews distil
Like amber bead.
His knife see rustic Labour dight,
An' cut you up wi' ready sleight,
Trenching your gushing entrails bright,
Like ony ditch;
And then, O what a glorious sight,
Warm-reekin, rich!
Then, horn for horn,
they stretch an' strive:
Deil tak the hindmost! on they drive,
Till a' their weel-swall'd kytes belyve,
Are bent lyke drums;
Then auld Guidman, maist like to rive,
"Bethankit!" 'hums.
Is there that owre his French ragout
Or olio that wad staw a sow,
Or fricassee wad mak her spew
Wi' perfect sconner,
Looks down wi' sneering, scornfu' view
On sic a dinner?
Poor devil! see him ower his trash,
As feckless as a wither'd rash,
His spindle shank, a guid whip-lash,
His nieve a nit;
Thro' bloody flood or field to dash,
O how unfit!
But mark the Rustic, haggis fed,
The trembling earth resounds his tread.
Clap in his walie nieve a blade,
He'll mak it whissle;
An' legs an' arms, an' heads will sned,
Like taps o' thrissle.
Ye Pow'rs wha mak mankind your care,
And dish them out their bill o' fare,
Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware
That jaups in luggies;
But, if ye wish her gratefu' prayer,
Gie her a haggis!
What is it made from? Ive never tried it.
I would eat a plateful
Yes. I would like to try it.
i would like to eat something that i understand the name of!!!!
Hello there, naw it disnae fly but it does run around the hills wi twa legs longer than the ither twa, thats how we catch them, hehe, they run roond the wrong way and they fa doon the hills, canna wait for me haggis, luvy stuff!! have a great day!!!
thats interesting..... if u offer, i think i might try
I'm a proud Scots girl, and I love Rabbie Burns. But haggis is rank. I usually celebrate with a good bottle of single malt =)
Hmmm...Would I eat a Sheep's bladder covered in a Pigs Stomach?
Well, as I spend most of my day stuffing bread crumbs up a chickens butt, and am an avid Meat-a-Holic, I'd give it a try.
nah, but the neeps and tatties are great! yum from Australia.
I guess I'd try it since you recommend it...=)
I'll try haggis if you try chitterlings!
I've seen on tv what it is made of and no I wouldn't eat it sorry.
I am not a fan of animal organs.
Hmm I have a scottish friend... I shall wish him a happy Rabbie Burns day.
What is it celebrating ???
Hi sexy pig..well im from down south and i want some...never tried but i want some..
Yes I would try it and I know what it is made from just never had the chance
aye an ye can get veggie wans these days but they just arny the same. Will you be gettin a fresh one or a tinned y`in? I meant to say I thought one leg was shaorter so they could run roun` the hills, that wouold mean a left hand and right hand haggis lol
Well, I would need to know what it is, only because I have food allergies. But as long as it doesn't involve eggs, mango, or kiwi, I will try it!
