Ha, just has a British man tell me I needed to try it. Tasty (supposedly), but apparently only if you don't think about what's in it...

I've eaten haggis - and I liked it - and I know how it's made. Yes, I'm odd.

And I'm about to start making my own bacon, but I'm going the pork route instead of the turkey route.

You can say the same thing about most anything including balogne and hotdogs...

Funny story, eon's ago I worked at McD's, lady came in and asked for specific parts of the chicken for her nuggets. Apparently someone told her that the shape determined where the nugget came from. I let her know that they blend up every last piece of chicken, smash it together and formed it like a cookie. Then it was breaded. It can only loosely be called even chicken. She had a salad.

I figured it was made this way when I noticed the "bubbles" in the "meat."

I have also guessed that in order for the fries to be made perfect the way they are with no brown spots they must be mashed and seasoned and then formed in the shape of a fry. That's just speculation.
