    If you read the article the only thing that may change is the lifting of the US ban in UK Lamb.

    The ban on the use of lung is not changing and the makers
    "are already preparing to replace the lungs in their traditional recipes so they can break into the American market."
    Later the article says -
    it will need to change its recipe,
    So other than the product will carry "Made in Scotland" it will not be significantly different than Haggis produced in N. America.

    Yes, looks like Macsweeney is ready to change their recipe to delete the lung to make it acceptable for importation into the US if this goes through.

    You chaps amaze me! With a changed recipe, then how can it be traditional? I will be delighted for the producers and the consumers if the "deal" can be arranged though.

    My thoughts exactly Jock Scot, if they change the recipe then it isn't exactly traditional anymore. At least I did get haggis on several occasions on our recent trip to Scotland. I really appreciated how the flavour changed as we traveled around.
