I had a distinctly non #Italian dinner with friends last night. Can you #guess what the grey stuff on the plate is? It was delicious 😋
RegHaggis?
@ReggieHere Well guessed! Despite being English, I lived up in northern England for a good few years and developed a taste for #haggis. When Scottish people here in Italy go back to Scotland - usually around Christmas, I politely request a haggis. An Italian friend of mine quite likes it though the rest of my family and his family do not.
That's fantastic. Introducing Italians to haggis ought to come with some kind of award!
@ReggieHere Ha! Of those who've tried haggis, only a minority appreciate it but that seems to be the case with haggis in general and I know Scots who are not haggis lovers. What I need is a haggis source in Italy and there is somewhere in Italy, in Tuscany, that might have and maybe even make haggis!
That would be interesting. Does the EU's protected regional food rules still apply after Brexit?
...apparently haggis bolognaise is a real thing.
@ReggieHere Haggis bolognaise???!!! Never heard of it! I don't think the EU's protected regional food rules still apply after Brexit seeing is the UK is no longer a member state and basically cut just about all its ties with the EU!
There's a gap for the Italians to exploit!

@ReggieHere Curiously - via Wikipedia: Food writer Alan Davidson suggests that the ancient Romans were the first known to have made products of the haggis type.
Interesting, altho I'm always a little sceptical of claims from the imperial powers that get to write the histories.
