Yes, especially as that is one of the few parts that doesn’t end up in the haggis.

I’m not sure if haggis is something anyone REALLY likes! lol There is “fake” haggis now too that doesn’t use some of the more offensive parts.
Scots on my mother’s side and haggis was never on the menu.

She grew up with fresh veg. all around. Her sister the same way. Don’t know what their dad liked — suspect he mustn’t have been a meat and 3 veg man. Vegetarians before their time. Tho my mother did like bacon.

We had it as a treat with pancakes on Sunday. No mass or church service necessary to obtain. Also, she used bacon on top of her home made baked beans.

My father was very scheduled in how he liked to eat. I knew what day of the week it was because of what we ate for supper. I still remember the menu.
Homemade spaghetti sounds great.

My mother was better with veggies. Ham she could handle, and strangely, when we’d get a duck from her sister’s farm, she could do that okay. We got a lot of our meat from there.

Common back then if you knew someone on a farm to get meat from them. We didn’t.

We moved a lot, so we weren’t always close enough to get the fresh meat and veg. Trouble was — my cousins named all the animals, so you felt very personally towards your meal.

Oh, I can imagine it would be very hard. I didn’t meet the meat so much as knew it’s name. My grandfather often won live turkeys — and there was always a debate over whether to have him for supper or not.
