Highland Haggis
I’m Scottish, and I have a number of overseas friends thanks to spending far too much time on the Internet. Back in 2010, I met an American girl and of course she had all sorts of questions ranging from “do you wear a kilt?” to “do you have windows?”
Jokingly, I told her haggis was an animal. She believed it, which is kind of understandable, but I decided to take it further. I told her they had left legs shorter than their right so they can stand up on the hills where they eat heather. She still believed it.
I told her there was another variety with shorter right legs that went around hills the other way. She still believed it.
I told her there had been attempts to breed the two to make a haggis that had legs of equal length, but they were unsuccessful as in order to mate with the female, the male had to turn around, causing it to fall over. She still believed it. Story credit: Reddit / ChefExcellence
