>>One tasty treat over here is called chorizo (chore-ee-zo). It's a spicy Mexican blend of pig internals and spices stuffed into a casing. It is really good with eggs. Yumm. You just have to not think about the contents as you eat. <g>

>That sounds a LOT like haggis, except the Scots make it from sheep and like to stuff it all into a pigs stomach with the veins still showing on the outside, lead it into the dining room preceeded my a man playing the bagpipes (which sounds a lot like the sheep having its stomach removed, come to think of it) and then address a poem to it, follwed by stabbing it with a short dagger (which is probably burnt afterwards, just in case). For some reason it is then eaten. No doubt this explains a lot about the Scottish accent: you'd speak like that if you'd had that for breakfast.

Imagine if the haggis was not cooked! No, on second thought we better not even suggest such a thing.
