you do know hat haggis
isn't even, remotely original,
as sourced in scotland...
as aren't bagpipes, i.e.
dudy - bagpies... sorry,
                               bagpipes;
but it really isn't the case!
            haggis?
   it's called black pudding
in england, served at breakast
with baked beans -
which, if was a sauce,
would be so much better than
ketchup;
      and it's closest cousin?
       bound / found in eastern europe...
less barley in that mix...
but it's called czarná kiszká....
  black... mingle.
     so i said less barley...
in eastern europe you entertain
kaszka... kasia... kate... catherine...
in the mix... i.e.porridge...
that's the difference between the scots
and the poles and the english...
the english don't add
the carbohydrates...
        which is why their version of "events"
is served at breakfast...
and can't constitute a "happy meal"
base for something eaten, in the afternoon,
or in the evening.
          black pudding?
      it's like looking at black fudge...
it's not exactly scot pub-grub
of haggis, neeps & tatties...
    (haggis... turnips and potatoes)...
or the charná kíshká variant...
       fried with onions and some garlic.
