I heard that haggis doesnât meet the food regulations in the US. Shame - tastes amazing!
Oh, thank god, weâre safe
I watched an episode of âdiners, drive ins and divesâ and they featured a restaurant that served haggis in the u.s. Of a.
Haggis imports stopped in 1971 when the US introduced a ban on sheep lungs, one of the ingredients of authentic haggis. Imports of all UK beef and lamb were stopped in 1989 in after the BSE outbreak, so millions of Americans who celebrate Burns Night each January have had to rely on inferior local haggis.
Obviously that was some substandard haggis they were serving, @everhopeful.
Excellent. All Americans here - head to that diner and eat the haggis. Remember to thank the Scottish hunters that caught the wild haggis in the first place (not many people know haggis actually roam the highlands. They are easy to catch however cos they have one leg shorter than the other and therefore just walk in circles).
That being said, I have never met an American who celebrates Burns Night. There are plenty of Americans I havenât met, though
I thought that made it easier for the flocks of wild haggis to run on mountainsides, though?
Or they were using locally sourced sheep lungs. Did I just write that?
You are right of course. They just have to be careful to not get dizzy and take a tumble.
Researching further, it appears that it is impossible for the human body to eat haggis. It appears to be scientifically proven and encoded in law:
âSheep lungs cannot enter the US as a human food because FSIS has determined that such material made from sheep slaughtered in the United States is inedible and is not inspected for use as an edible material,â a USDA spokesperson said. âSheep lung material from foreign inspection systems likewise are not permitted for human consumption in the United States.â
Which begs the question, what are these Scottish people playing at?!
Woa! That restaurant on tv must have been serving EDIBLE haggis. I see a lawsuit.
No wonder itâs substandard. The questions raised run deeper and deeper.
