QUIRKY WORLD ... Humble haggis gets luxury treatment for Burns Night

SCOTLAND:  The ‘world’s most expensive haggis’ has been created, with wagyu beef, French truffle, and edible gold among the ingredients.

The famous Scottish delicacy is traditionally eaten on Burns Night and is made with lamb heart, lungs, and liver, mixed with oats, onions and spices.

However, butchers Macsween created a £4,000 (€5,700) haggis, containing Highland wagyu beef from hand-reared cattle in Perthshire; white summer truffle from France, tellicherry black pepper from India, which Macsween said can only be grown at over 2,000ft above sea level.
