Ben, do you know what haggis is made of? Just wondering.

OK, Ben, I was teasing...if you go to Google and put haggis in the search box you will get a bunch of recipes. Most use sheep's liver and heart and other parts you don't want to know about. That's why I made the comment about ...if you like liver you will like haggis. Maybe it's beef liver you don't like... Anyway, I would have to be mighty hungry!
