A New Haggis. Is the Way to True Love: Through The Stomach?
There’s just a few days left before Valentine’s Day on February 14 so after you’ve read this blog there are some suggestions below for great gifts for your loved one.
And if you are a regular reader you’ll know that not only is there a new guy in the White House in Washington with a Scots mum and he’s a demon for trade restrictions. But there’s always been one trade restriction that has stuck in the craw of Scots and their descendents living in the USA and that’s the ban on haggis throughout the country. How can a true son of the nation celebrate great days without access to the national dish? Well it now may be possible to get one Stateside without smuggling it or buying it on the Black Market.
The overseas market for haggis is quite buoyant and it sells across the globe and worth nearly £10 million so a new US haggis would be sure to inflate this figure considerably and add to sales in Nigeria, England, Ghana, Hong Kong and even Greece. Scots get everywhere!
Scotland’s largest haggis maker has decided to make a USA compliant haggis with a number of changes to the traditional recipe in order to get it across the border from Canada and so break a 54 year old ban. It’s our old friend the sheep’s lung that is the problem as this ingredient is banned by Federal Law. The company has “form” on creative versions on Haggis and has in the past created a vegan version of the food and it has the expertise to create a dish that fully replicates the taste and texture without the addition of the sheep lung.
