    They also had black pudding (tried that before and it’s pretty tasty). This was similar. I don’t know if it was authentic, but it was quite tasty.

      It probably is. A closer look it seems like it’s a ground haggis filling. Good stuff.

          That looks like the haggis we get here in Glasgow.

          It’s always looked like that. You mostly see the texture of the oats instead of the pluck.

          I highly recommend veggie haggis though. Seriously, it’s good food.

            I assume whole organ haggis has gone out of fashion in most places in favour of the ground sort?

              I’m not sure what you mean by “whole organ” haggis. I haven’t seen anything different to what I’ve described in the last 50 years.

              The stuff we have still has pluck… The offal, but it’s always minced.

              Can you find a picture of it? I’d be really interested in seeing if I can get hold of some to try.

                I got my offal origins mixed up, the dish I was thinking of is a Namibian tribal food that uses the intact organs stuffed into the stomach. I’d filed it away under haggis in my head.
