The humble haggis.


"The Scottish Government is considering asking the United States to rethink its ban on haggis imports. Imports of Scotland's iconic dish were banned by the US in 1989 in the wake of the BSE scare because it contains offal ingredients such as sheep lungs. Only an offal-free version of haggis is available in the US."

The first test for Scotland's "new politics," or pure tokenism from an increasingly sporadic Scottish Government when it comes to anything "Scottish"?
