slomo Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Haggis returns to Canada — but the Canadian government made sure it won’t be authentic Due to a controversial Canadian import law, the haggises all had to be crafted without one of their most signature ingredients: sheep offal, or lung. While Canadians are allowed to eat most parts of a sheep, lungs remain in a federally verboten category that includes genitals, udders, spleens and “black gut.” Scotland’s Lord McColl of Dulwich proposed that legal haggis could help fat Americans lose some weight.

SlowTouringGuy Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Sheep genitals have been enjoyed by many and for many years out this way. The Federal Government has lots of related experience. Hypocrisy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
