Hogmanay (Scotland's New Year's Eve)
Am looking for a reliable American source for Haggis to help celebrate Hogmanay with friends. I found Scottish Gourmet USA as one source. Are they reliable? Do you know of any others?

Don't know for sure, but I've heard that because of the use of some degree of guts, true Scots Haggis isn't allowed in (or to be made) in the U.S. of A.
Having attended numerous Burns' Suppers where there is a sizable Scots population (in Ewe-stun) and having had Haggis a time or two in the U.K., there is a very noticeable difference between here vs. there. Can't / won't say better or worse, just different.
'Course, if one is following the apparent protocol (at least when having Haggis at a Burns' Supper) by the time one gets to actually eating the Haggis, all is well with the world. :)
