RDM59: Burns' night boost for famous Scottish dish that fell victim to BSE fearshttp://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2010/jan/24/america-haggis-ban-lifted-burns

FAB!!
Getting hungry now.....

What does Haggis taste like?? I have eaten some odd things like liverwurst, Souse, Boudain and Beef heart. Liverwurst is one of my favorites especially served on toasted bread with a slice of tomato and a dab of horseradish mustard.
