Lungs? I thought it was the stomach.
I do know that you can buy canned haggis in the US because I have (humorous birthday present). Maybe it was made in the US.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
You know, I've vacationed in Scotland several times, and have NEVER gotten up the nerve to try haggis.
If you ever go back, give it a shot. It's not near as bad as it sounds. A nice helping of haggis with some 'neeps and tatties (turnip and potato) is quite nice. I probably never would have tried it if I hadn't married a Scottish woman.

Offal stuffed with offal? How - awful!Talk about a empty gesture towards free trade. Anyone for offal stuffed with offal.
I ate boiled cow eyes when I was visiting my fiancee in the Philippines a few weeks ago, so pretty sure I could stomach this.
It was a dish called Soup #5(I've no idea why it's called that). It has cow skin, cow eyes and some other parts of the cow in it. Last visit, I ate dog and promptly threw up 10 minutes later.I suppose any of us who eat hot dogs don't have much credibility for piety, but, cow eyes?

Tomorrow night is Robert Burns Night, when haggis is tradionally eaten. And the celebration also includes shot after shot of a good single malt. Which is probably the only way anyone can eat the haggis.
Haggis- One of those dishes I enjoy, but cannot eat great portions of!
I think it was Michael who said he's not adventurous in eating; I have been known to be- Totally by accident, most times.
There's a traditional Vietnamese dish that's pronounced Kim She- Horrid stuff, but I can see how people might like it if it's something they grew up eating. Gave me two days of indigestion.
I've also had boiled cow eye- wasn't too bad, I guess. The one that threw me for a loop was a breaded and fried (I think) pig eye. Yours truly thought it was a cheese ball and my friends allowed me to eat it before informing me about what it was. Only thing I could tell them was that I thought it had a whole lot more juice than it should have had for cheese.
I've also eaten Rocky Mountain Oysters, and if you've never had them prepared properly than I can understand why that gives people the dry heaves. I, however, had it prepared to perfection and it is currently one of my favorite dishes.
Additionally, I've eaten prepared monkey brain; not bad, actually. Tasted like a meaty tapioka pudding. The coloring is quite different from tapioka, of course, but all in all, it was delicious.
Some of the more accepted foods I've eaten, yet which still count as different, are shark, kalamari, scorpion and dog. The last was made by a wonderful Filipeno couple I know who have the meat shipped to them overnight packed in dry ice.
There's also an interesting alcoholic beverage that comes out of Egypt called Cobra whiskey. If you ever get the chance to try it, do so- But ask to see the bottle first. If there isn't a cobra in the alcohol, (think Tequila), it's a cheap knock-off.
All that to say- Hope they let Haggis back.
