Americans try Scotland's national dish (Haggis) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@sussex33]

Nothing irks me more than Americans playing the whole “oh that’s disgusting, I can’t believe you eat that” about haggis, then flying home and having a Hot Dog!

[@kyleandmadie]

okay

[@mahonie3002]

I lived in the USA for 18 months and was shocked at how bad the food quality was, how much sugar there was in everything, how processed every was and how expensive it was for such nasty food.

[@leadoug1163]

@@kyleandmadie Arhh gutted. i was just about to subscribe until i saw how passive aggressive you were in your reply to them. disappointed.

[@kyleandmadie]

Okay

[@johnhood3172]

That’s not real Haggis , go to a restaurant and have the real thing.

[@stuartmarshall2418]

The irony is there's much worse things in the sausage roll she loved than in the haggis she was frightened about. Haggis is a super food

[@TUUK2006]

Yeah, "Glass-cow" will single you out as clueless in a second. "Glas-go".

[@kyleandmadie]

I mean, we are tourists 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@WORCESTERTHATCH]

@@kyleandmadie Take no notice of the Eejit's guys, you're hardly clueless. More like the lovely tourists, we Brits welcome to our beautiful nation ❤

Haggis served properly is not deep fried in batter from a chip shop ! 😀

[@alasdairfinlayson]

I believe the original thinking regarding the ingredients of a haggis was to respect the animal by not letting any of it go to waste. To Scots, it's regarded as just normal everyday food! As for the flak you're getting for the pronunciation of Glascow, it's understandable, as the individual syllables Glas and cow would be said just as you said it. Everyone in Scotland hear it mentioned all the time as Glazgo. It crops up a lot in youtube videos, and your best bet in any town or country is just to ask a local. They'd be happy to help!

[@lynnejamieson2063]

One of the best descriptions I’ve heard of haggis (when it’s served as the national dish, with neeps and tatties instead of battered and deep fried) is comparing it to a highly peppered (as in ground pepper) meatloaf. Oh and if you’re really uncomfortable with the thought of the ingredients of a traditional haggis, try the vegetarian one. It has the same flavour profile but generally contains lots of finely diced veg and lentils along with the oats, vegetable suet and spices of the traditional one. As a Scot who has been vegetarian for around 35 years, I can honestly say I love a bit of veggie haggis and often have one in the freezer for when the craving strikes.

[@Brian-om2hh]

It's pronounced Glazgo. The OW part is not usually accentuated. Greggs sausage rolls are ok, but some of the smaller independent bakeries do a pretty good job of making sausage rolls and pies too.

[@gabbymcclymont3563]

Its also Kes ick,

[@JamesLochridge-u1h]

Actually it's pronounced Glass-go, the W at the end just confuses people.

[@johnwhite2143]

The haggis breed are ver hard to catch, snarling wee animals with one two short legs and two long legs so the can run around the mountain, u have lefty's and rights an when they meet they mate an lay scotch eggs 👌👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😁

[@VeritySnatch]

i cant listen to you say "glass cow" one more time

[@stuartmays]

Our haggis isn't too far removed from your Meatloaf, slightly different ingredients but tastes a lot the same. You get bonus points for trying Glasgow tho.

[@scottfletcher1561]

Gives me shivers when people can say Glasgow properly 🤢

[@martynwhyte7673]

Next time in a glasgow chippie get a pizza crunch or black pudding. My son and i were in the city that day the closures for the cycling were a pain as we had to go catch a train to edinburgh and couldnt get to queen Street station glad you enjoyed it

[@acme181169]

Rabbie himself often popped down to the chippy for a deep-fried one. He even said as much in his address!

[@oishicurrypuffus]

Never tried haggis before, but it sound delicious.

[@kyleandmadie]

Kyle says it’s great, I say it’s…. Strange 🌞😂

[@TUUK2006]

It is. People are disgusted by the ingredients, but they'll eat a hot dog in a second. Think that's filled with choice cuts!?

[@orraman5427]

Wait till you read the ingredient list for the sausage filling in your sausage roll.

[@andycopland3179]

My American wife tried haggis tonight, made in a butcher shop. This woman can't even dice chicken without throwing up and she went back for 2nd's on the haggis.

[@tonyrantnrave6854]

I don't know if you know but if you have a look at 1.47 that is the scene in the film were World War Z started. Oh and it's "glaaz· gow"

[@kyleandmadie]

Woah we never knew that! How cool!

[@Uber_Markus]

I'm very happy you went to that chippy and not blue lagoon.

[@michaelwiebe4282]

Great vlog, love you guys!

[@kyleandmadie]

thank you!!!

[@zupermaus9276]

Haggis is no difference between any sausage really (other than it's not usually rolled into a sausage shape) -the offcuts of meat in sausage skin (intestine).

[@kyleandmadie]

I think it’s just knowing what’s in it that makes it so different 🥲

[@silverfire01]

You should try restaurant haggis rather than the fast food variety with batter. I like haggis as long as is not too spicy.

[@dannywachowski5880]

Chip shop haggis is disgusting along with what the supermarkets sell. The best haggis I ever had was homemade by a Scottish family I know and it's far superior to the 'industrial' stuff you've tried

[@allasse1704]

Great video, but pronounced "Glez-ga" and as others have said, chippy haggis is bowfin (bow as in cow)😂

[@AuldScot1888]

Glad you guys enjoyed my home city. You cheated a bit on the haggis. Should have had it with neeps & tatties and a wee whiskey sauce on the side. 😉

[@alfiekelly5914]

That's whisky. Whiskey is Irish or American.

[@colinmcgregor123]

Think about it , maybe your historical relatives lived and survived on haggis 👍

[@thescotchsonnet5614]

Maggie does not like the thought of haggis but will happily eat sausage 😂

[@malcolmparsley]

Hearing you are now in Belgium, I hope when you were in Scotland you did the North Coast 500, I’ve seen and heard only great things about this stunning route (whatever the weather) at the top of Scotland. And as for Cathedrals, England has plenty of them....your Dan should have taken you to St Paul’s in London. >>

[@kyleandmadie]

Hey!!! We unfortunately did not do the NC500, we originally had that on the list, but realized that we drove 1500 miles in 3 weeks and needed to slow down a little for our sanity and gas $ 🥲 hopefully next time!!

[@malcolmparsley]

@@kyleandmadie That’s a lot of miles with the price of petrol, I can understand....but the NC500, isn’t going anywhere😉 so I hope you get up there one day.

[@alanthomson1227]

That’s not haggis , it’s a haggis pudding .

[@michaelwiebe4282]

I ate Haggis once, it was OK. But I think personally the most brave thing in regards to food was when I ate a snake in Shanghai, China. It comes with vegetables and salad 😅😂😊.

[@kyleandmadie]

A snake.... I say I (madie) couldn't eat that, but we all know Kyle would 😅 Veggies, a salad, and a crispy little snake on top... mmmm!

[@michaelwiebe4282]

@@kyleandmadie Yeah, they had two half-transparent plastic boxes standing on the sidewalk, each full of living snakes. In one box were thinner ones in diameter, the other thicker, more expensive on the menu 😊. They take one out for you and kill it in the back kitchen ( luckily, I didn't see that )

[@kyleandmadie]

what an experience!!! That is wild! 😅

[@lyledeevore1389]

You're always most likely safe getting the sausage roll and chips. You're in Belgium now so the thing there is Pommes Frites. They fry them twice and you get different flavored sauces to dip them in. Have fun on the continent!!!

[@kyleandmadie]

Ahh thank you for the recommendation!!! We are heading for some Belgium waffles right now so we will have to pick some of those up too 😉

[@GemmaH1810]

You should try it without the batter like with neeps and tatties

[@johnwatt5921]

Ooh your making me hungry wi the haggis

I just ate dumplings with strawberries for dinner, but I'd still eat this haggis. I do not know this .😄

Why the hell are you having a deep fried haggis?? We deep fry pizzas, and you wouldn't use that as a guide to how pizza should taste..... go to a restaurant and have haggis with tatties and neeps (potatoes and turnips) and a creamy whisky sauce..... deep fried haggis is like the late night alternative to a kebab!!

[@alfiekelly5914]

There are 4 cathedrals in Glasgow. Two more than Liverpool! I hope that you end up trying real haggis and not that deep fried monstrosity. Good video guys. And glad that you found the pronunciation of Glasgow. Glasgow is regularly used for Hollywood filming.

[@Retrospective.]

The index on the video said, "it's pronounced Glaz-go", and you then go an call it "Glass-cow", like most other Americans, and this whole, "we are eating Haggis, made from lungs, heart and liver, try it if you dare", is getting pretty old. I lived in American for a year, and some of the shit you eat puts Haggis to shame, Hot-dogs (lips and assholes) chittlins, and WTF is head cheese? it would be nice to see some of our American friends, just try Haggis, rather than make it look like your about to eat a cadaver, and if I am honest, it's pretty insulting, and insensitive.

[@enemde3025]

MAJOR CRINGE ALERT !! GLAS GOW ?? Glasgo and Mosco ! "Traditional " haggis doesn't come covered in batter from a Chip Shop !! It's boiled in the sheep's stomach and eaten with NEEPS AND TATTIES (mashed turnips and mashed potatoes).
