MacSweens Vegetarian Haggis is amazing. Yeah, its not real haggis, but its an amazing meal in it's own right.

There are meat eaters who wont touch haggis with a barge pole, remember.

"Kidney beans, lentils, a mixture of vegetables and nuts, combined with the traditional haggis ingredients; oatmeal, onions and the same spicy seasoning base." Apparently.

americans annoy me, I have heard "!crow-marr-tee" instead of cromarty and "ay-vee-more" instead of aviemore far too many times


Hmm. Odd point. Presumably you're totally comfortable with the countless US place names of French, Spanish or Native American origin that are not pronounced quite how a native Briton might expect? Come to that presumably you're ok with pronouncing Cromar as "crow-mar" and not "crom-ar"? Or with some of the more unusual Scottish place names such as Kirkcudbright and Kilconquhar and Milngavie?

How do Parisians feel when we say the name of that city?

Honestly, get over it.
