Haggis is a type of pudding made with the mincedliver, heart, and lungs of a sheep. These are mixed with beef or mutton, oatmeal, and seasoned with onion and other spices. The mixture is stuffed into a sheep’s stomach and boiled. It is usually served with turnips and mashed potatoes. Haggis is similar to the Korean Sundae, a type of blood sausage.
Are there any unusual food in your country that foreigners may not find appetizing?
A.
One food item that most foreigners do not like from America is the pickled egg. Pickled eggs are quite common and can be found mainly at gas stations and bars in America. However, nobody that I know likes it and none of my friends from other countries like it. After eggs are hard-boiled, the shells are removed, and the eggs are soaked in a solution of vinegar, salt, and other spices. They are very difficult to eat because they smell strongly of vinegar and the texture is hard and rubbery.
