Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish. Although there are many recipes, it is normally made with the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately an hour. It somewhat resembles stuffed intestines (pig intestines otherwise known as chitterlings), sausages and savoury puddings of which it is among the largest types. Most modern commercial haggis is prepared in a casing rather than an actual stomach. There are also meat-free recipes specifically for vegetarians which supposedly taste similar to the meat-based recipes.
Some Scots joke that the haggis is a small animal native to Scotland.
Haggis is traditionally served with "neeps and tatties" (Scots: turnip and potatoes), each of these being mashed, separately. (The "neep" is the yellow vegetable — Brassica napobrassica, or Brassica napus var. napobrassica — called 'swede' in southern England and 'rutabaga' in North America.)

It's a traditional Scottish dish.
You can find it at "Sixth Avenue Bistro" or "McDougal's Catering" in downtown San Diego. I had it last year it was great! they sell it by the pound or they have a full Dinnner in the Restaurant usually around Jan 24-26th. Enjoy!

Sheeps inards. You may need to ask a butcher or find a Scottish shop.

Seasoned oats in a sheep's stomach. If you don't know what it is you probably wouldn't like it
