Uh, no, actually. I didn't get that sense at all. Mostly it's about
how haggis has changed, and why. It does include some opinions from
various people about how some version are considered nasty and what
people have done to change that impression, and it also covers
American variants based on difficulty in obtaining things like lungs.
But none of it is expressed as value judgement on the part of the
author of the article or the paper.

brioche!" / "If there's no bread to be had, one has to say, let them
eat cake!"

"Confessions", 1782
"Why don't they get new jobs if they're unhappy -- or go on Prozac?"
