  • Insider’s Claudia Romeo traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland to meet with James Macsween, a third-generation haggis producer who has turned his grandfather’s butcher shop into one of the most successful haggis companies in the UK. Haggis is spiced meat encased in animal intestines with salt, spices, and a few other ingredients depending on the recipe. Macsween’s haggis is made using lamb lungs, beef fat and a secret mixture of spices from a 67-year-old recipe.

      I was taught in world history class that the Scottish valued & guarded their history, culture and their traditions , with their lives.and that the tartan cloth was sacred to their lands, heritage and culture and that each distinguished tartan color represented the individual clans of the Scottish people and the kilts , tartan cloth and bagpipes were inherited and passed down the linages from father to son and that it was not only a honor to inherit such valuable family treasures they were sacred to the families and to the clans that inherited such valued family heirlooms and for anyone to buy such family heirlooms and then to wear them out in public was looked upon with shame and anger , imposters showing off stolen valor. Yet in the realms of the woke 21st century we now live . All cultures (excluding European and the United Kingdom cultures ) are protected and respected and cultural appropriation is frowned upon for every culture but for some odd reason the rules don't apply for European and the United Kingdom cultures. And we now are witnessing the loss of culture and traditions and cultural appropriations . Take Scotland for example the sacred kilt passed down through centuries of their ancestral linages and the great changes the clans brought about to Scotland , the battles fought on their lands was all in vain because in the 21st century anyone can be Scottish, anyone can wear a kilt and infact you can now get elected in Scotland based on your other the white skin tone and the woke global elite will even see to it that you are given a coat of arms , make them up a tartan color and allow them the privilege to walk around in kilts making a mockery of the Scottish ancestry and traditions. The unelected pm of Pakistan origins that also says Scotland is to wh. Ite . Isn't wearing that kilt because he feels honored or claims to be Scottish he wears it to mock you in your faces and like a trophy that Scotland has been defeated and is now a conquered land . I can't understand just how blind and brainwashed people have become that they cheer on their own demise and the conquering of their own lands . It's insane watching the west being destroyed from the inside and the woke continue to cheer on their own destruction, the loss of their own unique cultural identity, traditions, history and Christian beliefs.

      That's because the Poem is Scot's, not English. It's a completly seperate language that was spoken in Scotland and Ulster Ireland. I wouldn't expect a non native to understand Rabbie Burns's poetry. I'm Scottish myself and can speak and understand Scot's, but I don't ever use it. My native tongue was Scottish Gaelic and English, to be honest I find speaking Scot's is too much effort as it's very western germanic and a bit rough. Where as I was raised speaking Gaelic which is more mellow and Danish-esque.

    I have a Taiwanese mother and a white American father, and the food culture they grew up with is really quite different. My mom grew up with the idea that if it's on an animal and it tastes good, we'll eat it, meaning we'll eat pretty everything from the skin to eyeballs to intestines (some people eat the privates for medicinal properties). On the other hand, my dad grew up on a farm where they only eat certain bits and made the rest either into sausage or gave it to the dogs and coyotes. Really is interesting to see how the ideas of what can and cannot be eaten varies across the world.

    All of y'all seeing this and thinking "I could never eat this," just remember what the man said, you can put whatever you want in it. Add some spices for flavor/color, mix up the kinds of meats, etc. Yes, there is a traditional way to do it, but if think about it historically, people couldn't always go to the shop and buy whatever meat and spices they wanted. So when those people made haggis, they would use what they had. The beef farmers used beef, the shepherds used lamb or mutton, sometimes they would mix and match. then whatever local spices and herbs were available. Make your haggis the way you want to.

      The issue didn't have to do with TB at all but with BSE (aka Mad Cow Disease) and the outbreak that happened in the UK in the 80's through 90's. BSE is a prion disease so you can get it even if the meat is cooked and also, you can get it and be asymptomatic for decades before the disease kills you. This is the reason that the US and Canada banned beef imports from the UK.

    I've never had haggis but I really want to try it. I'm from Philadelphia and around here, we have a breakfast food called scrapple which is a very similar concept but using cornmeal instead of oatmeal as the binder (substituting a typical American grain for a typical Scottish grain) and it's more like a solid product than can be sliced and panfried.
    I also tried a very similar food in northwestern China called yangfazi (羊筏子) that was very good, too.

      I'm sure this was just a typo, but the haggis is Scottish, not Spanish. The poem is the "Ode to a Haggis" by Scotland's national poet Robert Burns (born 1759, died 1798). The Burns Night celebration is the 25th of January, which was Robert Burns' birthday. Burns Night suppers have a long tradition and they involve recitations of the Haggis poem as well as other parts of Burns' works. The haggis is traditionally served with mashed potatoes and neeps (the Scottish word for the type of turnip known as a swede which has orange flesh) and "washed down with whisky". Everyone has a good time!
