I ate curried goat. It's tastes a bit like pork but a little gameier (if that's a real word?)
Haggis is great. If you like the eat sausage then you may like haggis. Just like sausage there are a zillion different recipes for it.
Wasn't that fun?
CB- Not gonna eat the Haggis
Farmer's Daughter- yup. surprising what I have eaten.
