"US Ban on Scottish Delicacy Divides Opinion"
Haggis, Scotland's national dish made of diced lung, liver, and heart mixed with oatmeal, beef suet, onion, and assorted spices, is a fine-dining treat in Scotland, but banned in the US due to the consumption of all livestock lungs. Haggis is a versatile dish that can be used in other dishes, such as lasagna and pastilla. Its spicy intensity means it is also finding uses in canapés and as a crouton-borne garnish for soups. Haggis is as intimately entwined with Scots identity as ever and is a badge of belonging for Scotland's ethnic minorities.
