Not the contents but the lining of it Tina. Not sure what goes in the bought ones. Maybe things have changed a bit, regulations etc.

Marion,
I think that they were not allowed to use suet during the BSE crisis but that has changed again.

I previously bought haggis, but had a vague idea what was in it - I think I'm glad I didn't know the rest!

At least haggis looks acceptable, but faggots ............. well, I won't say what they look like! But...... if you've got a big dog around!!!!!
