[quote author=catblaster]I've been hooked on Scotch eggs lately.......just cant seem to get enough of them.[/quote]

My better half makes them often for potlucks and other eating events, sliced and served with 'poo poo mustard', and they're always a hit. One California colleague who attended a get together at a 'British pub' in CA, asked for "eggs with the stuff around"  :(

I smile when I hear them referred to as "Scotched eggs" or "Scottish eggs".
 
Love grits and fried eggs. Grits and shrimp. Also love black pudding with a nice runny fried egg.
 
One time in the 80's while in New Orleans, my colleagues convinced me to try grits. If I never see or eat grits again, I'll be a happy dude.

If you're referring to the thin, white, runny, bland grits like Waffle House serves, understand. But if you haven't tasted them, give smoked cheese grits a try. Salmon on cheese grits is pretty darn good.

One would think though that a guy who likes haggis and black pudding would eat pretty much anything  ;)

My dad used to drink it from tins with dollybirds on the side. It was my first beer. It's not very good! The microbreweries in the US are fabulous though. ?

They're not something that I had growing up. I guess the word Scotch gives it away as that usually means it's got not a lot to do with Scotland.

Sounds like you have to add stuff to get them to taste of anything ??

you should try this at least once. I make it every holiday and most dont even realize it is grits until I tell them, its more like a custard.  http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/grits-pie

ask seilerbird his opinion of grits, seems to be in agreement with you on this.
 
What are laverbread, dollybirds and faggots ??? Obviously I need to get out more.

When you say dollybirds I assume you mean pictures of beautiful girls clad in bikini's on the sides of the cans of Tennents Lager.  The cans had the girls on them back in 1980 when I was there last.  I wonder if it's still the same today.
