Robert Burns, Scotland’s most famous poet, is also famous for his love of haggis. His “Address to a Haggis” declared, “Fair and full is your honest, jolly face, Great chieftain of the sausage race!” Haggis, a traditional dish made of sheep innards stuffed in a sheep’s stomach, is the centerpiece of Burns Night suppers, which are usually held on January 25 (Burns’ birthday) in Scotland and all over the world.
