Yes, it is very, very good. And even for those who don't like haggis, there is nothing scrambled with eggs that can't be improved with some hot sauce.

I love my morning Haggis mixed with diced potatoes. Think corned beef hash, but with Haggis instead. Pure heaven with 2 eggs runny-side up.

PS: Barring that, fried eggs and Dave's Insanity Sauce

Here's a recipe for Vegetarian Haggis. I've never tired it, but it looks like it should work, even though the OP is asking for different brands available at the store.

Since I quit smoking cigs about 8 years ago, Dave's Insanity is a bit much for me. I'm a Sriracha guy now, or Tabasco Chipotle. I know, that stuff is like fruit juice for you guys.

That being said, if I want a kick in the stones, Endorphin Rush is the best tasting sauce among the "superhot" sauces out there.

The Chipotle Tabasco is quite nice when spicing up a Bloody Mary or really putting the finish on a Bloody Maria (replace Vodka w/ Tequila).

Have you tried Doc's Special Jamaica Hell Fire Sauce?

It's not nearly as hot as Dave's Insanity, and has a really nice blend of Caribbean spices in it. Perfect for grilled chicken or similar.

Guys, can we please try and get back on topic here!

I'm looking for Haggis brands...

To be honest when I lived in Scotland I always bought Haggis from the local butcher and never in a tin. My wife is a vegetarian and I think she eats the tinned veggie one you mentioned. At the Burns Supper I attend here in New England we had a member who managed to get it served to us via the Diplomatic Bag of HM Consul-General, as the US FDA is very strict about sheep offal.
