@@davidturner3127 best cuisine in the world for me mate. Me and my mate paid just shy of $200 for dinner at Gordon Ramseys place in Vegas and I've honestly had better meals at my local Indian restaurant in Greenock for less than £20
No Scotch pies? I steered clear of them when I first came to Scotland - they didn't look all that appetising - rather pale - but then, on a walking holiday, it was all the village shop had left to buy for lunch so I though it would be better than nothing. It turned out to be absolutely delicious. Clootie dumpling is very nice too.
English born, but Bru, Oatcakes and Haggis are in my blood. Love eating all Scottish foods, and the people are great. My favourite place to visit in the world.
Haven't been there in 11 years now...😭 I so miss the accents. The Scots are wonderful people. I can get Irn-Bru but it costs a mint here. A fellow about 80 mi. away makes good Haggis (some in the fridge as I type), in the US you can't use lungs.
I visited Scotland last month with my husband (we are from czech republic), the food for us was like a rollercoaster :D some was great, some was not very good (not seasoned enough mostly). We did not tried haggis or black pudding, since we have similar type of food (but from pork inner parts) in czechia and i dont like it very much. But the cheddar cheese, the scottish eggs, fish and chips, scones with cream, the shortbreads, the toffee, the cooked breakfast -everything was really very good. The best surprice for me was a soup - Cullen skink - very delicious, i will absolutely try to cook it home to - bcs it was really tasty and actually really healthy i think :) ... We came to Scotland for the beautiful nature - and it was really breathtaking, and the people were really sweet, kind and helpfull everywhere. Always smiling and wishing you the best - in our country everybody is always frowny - so it was really great trip, and we will come back sometimes.
On the most part foods that are bland in Scotland are intentionally so and you are supposed to eat them by adding your own condiments. We generally don't salt our chips/potatoes but they are served with salt, vinegar and various sauces for you to add as you wish. Full Breakfast again served with sauces for you to add yourself. Pies served with sauces or gravy that you are expected to add yourself.
Hello John, it is my judah! Do you remember me? I went to Scotland a few years back only like 1 2 3 or Maybye 4 my mother was Christie father mark brother Asher and my 2 sisters orli and Ryleigh! I just wanted to say hello from Hawaii! We’re on vacation of summer 2024 for a few days so, yeah anyway I miss you!
Cracking video, really enjoyed it. Nice format, subscribed straight after! Looking forward to more! Maybe travel down to England with an even bigger Scottish food hamper, with some warm stuff too, perhaps a mini stand cook up some Aberdeen Angus steaks, pies, haggis, chips, combos, all sorts!
Brilliant video. I took my daughter to Inverness and Aviemore in the Summer and we loved it. I'm really sorry to say that the only Scottish food we had was the Turnocks chocolate wafers. Headed straight for the Italian, and Chinese, and had some amazing fish and chips in Aviemore 😂
Mince and dough balls, rough oat cakes with smoked mackerel or salmon, potato scones, leek and tattie soup... happens we live in a fishing village on Scottish East coast, so fish and chips is pure heaven 😂 honestly, food here is wicked good

I realised that people who claim something is "boring and flavourless" more often than not have destroyed their taste buds with chillies, salt and various other spices to the point of not being able to just eat meat on its own.
I tend to agree. Not everything has to have pounds of spices dumped in it. I love Indian food but don't want to eat it for every meal. Living in a state that has coastline I appreciate the delicate flavor of seafood and also enjoy simple foods that let their flavors speak for themselves, as it were.
I wake up every morning with a glass of Irn Bru and a box of the ultimate breakfast that contains Lorne sausage, black pudding, haggis and tattie scones
I can get Irn Bru here at my local grocery called Publix in Florida USA, but yes, it is the lower sugar one with the aspartame in it. I wish I could get the 1901. I buy the Carmel wafers here all the time but now I'm excited to find out they come in dark chocolate.
The 1901 is the best, but I still think it doesn't have enough of the old iron tang the stuff I grew up with had, might be just my old rose tinted glasses though (or decrepit taste buds, I dunno)
Claim them if you dare, (and even go as far as selling them in tartan wrappers,) but Scotch Eggs are NOT a Scottish food. Possible origins are Fortnum & Mason in London & Whitby in North Yorkshire, and the only reason they are called 'Scotch' eggs is because they were originally cooked over an open flame by 'Scorching' so were originally called 'Scorch' eggs.
@@phild5454 That is not a source that is a suspicion, I don’t believe your theory as why have we not taken an Indian word? We have no problem with adopting other such words as shampoo, bungalow, pyjamas, thugs etc. so why invent a new term for this?

6:57 Scotch eggs are English not Scottish. The word 'scotch' is an old word that means 'scorch' which refers to the flash frying. They were first marketed by Fortnum & Mason in London. Come on man, you're supposed to know your Scottish history.
A popular misconception that Scotch eggs are Scottish because of the name. It is actually an English dish from Yorkshire, named after William Scott the guy who sold them.
William Scott's late 19th century version had no pork or breadcrumbs and the egg was covered in fish paste, hardly a comparison. Rumours of Scotch Eggs go back to London in 1738. Anyhow a pork scotch egg recipe was recorded 1809 in Englishwoman Maria Rundell's cookbook, although this version also did not have breadcrumbs just pork. To scotch a meat or ingredient is a cooking method, nothing to do with Scotland.
For any one who’s not from Scotland , I must recommend going to Glasgow of a Friday night stop by a well know place like the gorbals or even spring burn , also make sure you shout young team when leaving the local shops and get ready to enjoy you’re full on Scottish experience :)
Never had Haggis, since it's essentially illegal to sell or prepare in United States, actually process venison is illegal in the US due to The Wasting, overall unless you hunt game it's illegal to eat wild game in America, but on other side of the coin, hunters, in Missouri have more hunted game rights than in England ie if a deer from a private property is killed on a managed public land or another property, the deer is the hunters' and if a wounded deer is shot on public land and dies on private land, it's still the property of the hunter and it's his/her responsibility to harvest the game so landowners are generally obligated to allow such and hunters are in turn are supposed to offer part of the spoils but under no reason to pay a montery amount for harvesting
It absolutely is NOT illegal in the US, you can make it and sell it, but you can't use the lights (lungs), as the FDA doesn't approve of lung as food. There's a fellow about 80 mi. from my home that makes and sells it, I have two packages of his haggis in my freezer as I type. Macsween's makes and sells canned haggis here, prepared seperately so it's US legal.
In Scotland one has the right to roam, that means one can go through or camp overnight on private property naturally one does not walk through a ploughed field with crops growing.
I have to inform you that 'Scotch Eggs' are not Scottish. They're English. The 'Scotch' means it was deep fried. You'll often hear of foods having been 'Scotched', particularly so from 300 or 400 years ago, up until fairly recently (though even today, it is still used), and that's all it means, it was deep fried.
Translated so Scottish people can also understand: i hae tae clype ye that 'scotch eggs' ur nae scots. They're sassenach. Th' 'scotch' means 'twas deep fried. Ye'll often hear o' foods huvin bin 'scotched', particularly sae fae 300 or 400 years ago, up 'til fairly recently (though even th'day, it's aye used), 'n' that's a' it means, 'twas deep fried.
@@SmokingLaddy 'Clype' means to tell on someone, to grass them up. If you told the Police that a certain person had broken into a car, you'd be clyping. 'Clype' does not mean to inform someone of something. 'Ur nae'? The Scots is 'arena'(pronounced are-na or are-nae). 'Sassenach' merely means Southerner, so someone in Lothian, or Dumfries for example is technically a 'Sassenach'. It does not mean English. 'Huvin' Isn't Scots. The word you're looking for is 'haein'. 'Bin' means a receptacle for rubbish, 'been' is 'been' or 'buin'. 'Aye' in this sense means always. To use Scots you'd more likely say 'yet', so "It's yet used"(meaning still used), "th'day' is simply "the day', "n" (as in 'and') isn't Scots, it's still 'and'. "Twas", not Scots, it would very simply be "it wis". It's better if you don't try to use a language you're clearly alien to, rather than making so many clear and obvious errors.
Sadly the Scoth Egg has nothing to do with Scotland..... The egg’s origins are in fact rooted in the coastal Yorkshire town of Whitby. Named after the establishment that invented them, William J Scott & Sons are said to have invented the ‘Scotties’ - the original eggs were covered in a creamy fish paste rather than sausage meat, before being covered in breadcrumbs. The sausage meat replaced the fish when the eggs began to be sold in big food shops, as it was easier to package. Variations of the original fish-covered eggs can still be purchased on the East Yorkshire coast.
Congratulations, they have all passed the test and can stay. If you do this again you should get a deep fried Mars bar, tennents super, clootie dumpling, polony and red kola
Agreed nuttin beats a haggis role same with black pudding also america should also quit calling black putting blood pudding it may be accurate in having blood in it but it’s not right
Scottish Black Pudding is very different from English Black Pudding. It's much finer - more like Spanish Morcilla. And as an Englishman I can say I much prefer it to the chunks of fat in the English variety
Love traditional Scottish food and drink. 80/- or 90/- Ale with a pie, a single malt with Haggis. All lovely. However 'Scotch Egg'? Not really Scottish.
Hang on ... they do dark chocolate Tunocks Wafers? Oh my shitting christ, I need these in my life! Oh and newsflash ... Scotch eggs don't come from Scotland, they're from England originally.
Choice of food in Scotland is fantastic but old style lorne, scots pie, haggis even cod and chips are very dull sometimes I'm in the mood for simple but they are not my favs by a long shot.
@@Scotlandswild1 I'm not trashing Scotland at least we have options like Curry, Chinese or Pizza and Kebabs etc etc there is a vegan place too but no one ever goes there.
It's interesting that the Taiwanese ladies liked Irn Bru snd compared it with one of their drinks from home. In Hokkaido, Japan I had a drink called Ribbon Napolin which reminded me of Irn Bru too. I brought some home to Scotland and my friends loved it!

Hang on ... they do dark chocolate Tunocks Wafers? Oh my shitting christ, I need these in my life!
Oh and newsflash ... Scotch eggs don't come from Scotland, they're from England originally.
Mealy puddings, lorne sausage and Arbroath Smokies
Well spoken
Another vote for Mealy puddings and Smokies.
wow scotch eggs are not Scottish ... amazing
neither is haggis tbf
chickern balmoral would be good , all the best scottish things thrown in a dish with chicken hmmm
Oh my you are so right
Choice of food in Scotland is fantastic but old style lorne, scots pie, haggis even cod and chips are very dull sometimes I'm in the mood for simple but they are not my favs by a long shot.
Hah, yeah well we're not known for our cuisine!
@@Scotlandswild1 I'm not trashing Scotland at least we have options like Curry, Chinese or Pizza and Kebabs etc etc there is a vegan place too but no one ever goes there.

I really hate to say it but Scotch eggs are English. :(
Scotch pie, swimming in bovril hmmm
mmmmmmmm
It's interesting that the Taiwanese ladies liked Irn Bru snd compared it with one of their drinks from home.
In Hokkaido, Japan I had a drink called Ribbon Napolin which reminded me of Irn Bru too. I brought some home to Scotland and my friends loved it!
We love sugary, highly caffeinated things :P
I want to go to Scotland now 😂
What the fuck did he buy for £85
‘Whiskey’ with an ‘e’? That’s Irish and American. It’s ‘Whisky’ without an ‘e’ if it’s Scottish.
That's a criminal offence mixing whisky and irn bru
He did get hauled away afterwards
@@Scotlandswild1 I guess I shouldn't mention that I found it goes really well with gin...
Haggis is just a kind of sausage the only thing is the Scottish tell you what’s in their sausage 👍🏻
hahaha true that
Stovies! Nothing like it
I am wondering…Is there any vegan Scottish food?
Why are they spelling whisky with an e?
If an American who eats Bologna and Hotdogs turns their nose up at Haggis, you know you'd have a problem.
Scotch eggs aren't Scottish.
Yep, you are right
@@Scotlandswild1 Dammit we will have to settle with Scotch Bonnets.
"don't try this at home!, come to Scotland"
Boys good with people,,,thats a weegie for you.
14k... Wow, it's safe to say you need to do more stuff like this... people just eat up these "react" videos... Good video, however that's not a Scotch Egg, my five year old could tell you that... you should have let people try the real thing, but I suppose you were trying to keep costs down... never the less, it's quality content so I'll hit subscribe :)
I once done a vegan course in Edinburgh and we went to a vegan restaurant and I had Vegan haggis. It was basically a nut cutlet, it was hard as a brick. Horrible.
Scotch egg is a English dish
soggy underside of a steak pie....
aw Jeeez
Scotch eggs are an English food. Invented in Yorkshire! 🙄🤣
The Yorkshire version was covered in fish paste NOT pork and breadcrumbs.
