Come on how many of you thought haggis was an animal?

I always knew it was sheep stomach.

It's the stomach of an animal so in your poll, I would vote YES. But I prefer to abstain as the question is open to misinterpretation.

ahh, being a vegetarian, has its benefits. dont have to eat such nasty things. the only people who are weird than people who eat haggis are vegans, now they are nuts.

Being partly of scottish descent I had no illusions as to what 'haggis' is... I came close to eating it once... then I remembered my runin with 'andouillette' which harks to the cuisine of the french side of the family... *gag*

one time I was REALLY (Well over a dozen double vodkas and Red-Bull) I actually indulged in some haggis. It still haunts me.

I've only eaten it once but it seemed quite ok.

I certainly preferred it to "Kokarec" that my wife suggested I eat whilst in Turkey.

(Come to think of it, what I really used to hate was the sheep's brains my mum used to occasionally make us eat when we were kids....bleagghhhh. )

We have something in common, I tried and enjoyed sheeps brains (the first time eaten in Pakistan). However when I tried it again in adult life it was horrible!! Perhaps because I knew what it actually was then.

I will always know haggis as 'the heart, lungs, and liver of a sheep boiled in its own stomach' - the worst fear of Peter Puppy. ^^
