I'll be honest, its not a deal in terms of price as you can get haggis this size for £3.50 in Sainsburys. However M&S are selling proper ones, made with lamb and in a proper casing. They are 2lbs in weight and cost £4.99, if you're celebrating Burns Night I'd go for one of these rather than a Wall's one.
Not everyones cup of tea, I'd don't expect this deal to get hot, but if you like haggis I just wanted to give you a heads up :smiley:

Ode Tae A Fart
Oh what a sleekit horrible beastie
Lurks in your belly efter the feastie
Just as ye sit doon among yer kin
There sterts to stir an enormous wind
The neeps and tatties and mushy peas
Stert workin like a gentle breeze
But soon the puddin wi the sauncie face
Will have ye blawin all ower the place
Nae matter whit the hell ye dae
A'body's gonnae hiv tae pay
Even if ye try tae stifle
It's like a bullet oot a rifle
Hawd yer bum tight tae the chair
Tae try and stop the leakin air
Shifty yersel fae cheek tae cheek
Prae tae God it doesnae reek
But aw yer efforts go assunder
Oot it comes like a clap o thunder
Ricochets aroon the room
Michty me a sonic boom
God almighty it fairly reeks
Hope I huvnae **** my breeks
Tae the bog I better scurry
Aw whit the hell it's no ma worry
A'body roon aboot me chokin
Wan or two are nearly bokin
I'll feel better for a while
Cannae help but raise a smile
Wiz him! I shout with accusin glower
Alas too late, he's just keeled ower
Ye dirty **** they shout and stare
A dinnae feel welcome any mair
Where e'ere ye go let yer wind gan’ free
Sounds like just the job fur me
Whit a fuss at rabbie's party
Ower the sake o one wee farty
Regards Akram Ali (although I can't have Haggis)

How can M&S be selling proper ones if it contains Lamb (I presume you mean Lamb Meat)? Real Haggis only contains sheep offal, heart, liver and lungs.

'Real Haggis' lmao didnt know there was pretend ones lol
Thanks for clarifying that, good to see they are being traditional, even though I wouldn't personally want to eat offal lol.

Don't knock it til you've tried it, its lovely :smile:
To be fair, I know exactly what you mean. I was the same with insects, and even after trying them I'm still not convinced! My mind says no regardless of what my tongue says, so I don't enjoy it. I tried haggis as a kid though, so have no preconceptions.

I personally like MacSween's haggis and Waitrose are doing these at a very good price (at least when compared to my local deli). Would be interested to know how M&S's compare.

TBH I usually get a MacSweens, we have a local butcher that gets them in to order. Nowhere else I've found gets them though, saw one on the deli counter at Sainsburys last night but it was just a Walls one :disappointed:
