Scott Bateman: Eating haggis in Scotland

Tastes like spicy meatloaf, looks like a sloppy Joe, comes with potatoes. Delicious!

    Holier than MacThou

    It is no more foul than eating hotdogs. The Scots’ mistake was in having a recipe, where hotdogs and sausages are made from whatever organs and eyes are left lying on the abattoir floor at the end of the day. And let’s not forget that “natural casing” just means “intestine.” Still, the frankness of the Scots gives some perspective on Morrissey (yes, I know he’s Mancunian and not Scottish). It is easier to say that meat is murder when you know that you are eating a stomach.

    Also, nice callback to past animations, SB. I especially liked the return of the Valanthia Orange man. Your animations remain the only thing worth watching on Video Dog.
