What does haggis taste like I have always been afraid to try it

Kind of... haggisy...

It depends on how the haggis was made; some commercial haggises come out of tins or plastic bungs, and tend to be pretty mild, but ones that come out of real stomachs tend to have more spices in them and have a slight taste of vomit to them, though in a kind of pleasant way.  I prefer the stronger tasting ones.  It's got a fairly creamy texture too from the organ meat, and is sort of chewy because of the barley.  If you've ever had black pudding, you'll be able to handle haggis; black pudding is much nastier.

I think the key here is: 'Dont Think, Don't Look, Just Eat!'

why is black pudding nastier? i think blood is nice, a bit dry but not insides at least.

Cooked blood is sticky and chewy.  I'm not very fond of black pudding, though I can eat it ok, but the cereals in it give me indigestion, so I avoid it.

My favourite holiday is Midsummers eve, it's fab-tastic! We dance around a pole decorated with flowers and such, singing weird songs like Little Frog, here is the translation of that lyric:

Little frogs, little frogs
is funny to see
Little frogs, little frogs
is funny to see

No ears, no ears
no tails do they have
No ears, no ears
no tails do they have

Go-ack-ack-ack, Go-ack-ack-ack
Go-ack-ack-ack-ack-aa

Go-ack-ack-ack, Go-ack-ack-ack
Go-ack-ack-ack-ack-aa

And then we eat and drink loads of liqour.

Pienet sammakot

Pienet sammakot, pienet sammakot
ne lystikkäitä on:
Ei korvia, ei korvia,
ei häntää laisinkaan.

Pikku possukat, pikku possukat
ne lystikkäitä on:
on korvia, on korvia,
on hännänsaparo.

Pupujussikat, pupujussikat,
ne lystikkäitä on:
on korvia, on korvia,
on hännännypykkä.

And then we eat and drink loads of liqour.

Fixed.

Hey, how many Swedes sing in Finnish? The original lyric:

Små grodorna, små grodorna
är lustiga att se
Små grodorna, små grodorna
är lustiga att se

Ej öron, ej öron
ej svansar hava de
Ej öron, ej öron
ej svansar hava de


Go-ack-ack-ack, Go-ack-ack-ack
Go-ack-ack-ack-ack-aa
Go-ack-ack-ack, Go-ack-ack-ack
Go-ack-ack-ack-ack-aa

[Calandale]
