you forgot about those big Haggis-Hunts in the Scottish Highlands!laugh


I went on a Haggis hunt in Scotland! They even can the stuff. I even found vegetarian haggis!laugh

The funny thing is, the best haggis I ever had was in Houston, Texas!

That's prolly cos they cater for American taste buds in Texas.
Same with pizza or Chinese. My daughter is not happy she can't get a decent pizza or Chinese in the US ...
Food is prepared different everywhere to cater for what people like


A better quality, more authentic Chinese food, can actually be found in parts of Canada, rather than the U.S..

Being Dutch, well, European, I can prolly name them all. But I can't spell most of the eastern European ones in English, hahaha.
But you're asking the Americans I think, so I'm off the hook :)

- German
- English
- French
- Scottish

Well, that leaves the Americans with the more difficult ones :)
Knock yourselves out!

Yeah, Gaelic is another one. I was more referring to what/how the Scottish speak, not Scottish or Irish Gaelic. Which indeed is different yet again.
Manx is part of that family too
I like Welsh :) Don't speak it, but when I was in Wales I was well on my way of 'dissecting' the lingo. I like weird chit, lol.
Also been busy learning Scottish Gaelic a couple months back. Even ended up using some Scottish Gaelic in one of my books :) But currently it's on the back burner.
