Call me a pessimist but I don't see it happening.
Not only for the reasons already stated in the article...
"Imported haggis was banned by the US because its food standards agency prohibits sheep lungs in food products."
and
"In addition to the sheep's lung ban, the US prohibited the use of offal from the UK in the wake of the BSE outbreak in 1989."
...there's no way to "sterilize" the organs in which the Haggis is contained. The FDA will never approve it.
Now....the US citizenry CAN serve "real" haggis but it must be made on the premises in which it's served but it may not contain sheep's lung.
