    If you've got guts enough to eat it, then calories shouldn't matter! :tongue:

    Seriously though--I think it would vary widely depending upon recipe used. But here's one site's numbers

    Sheep's stomach stuffed with various ingredients.

    from wiki--

    Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish.

    There are many recipes, most of which have in common the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately three hours.

    I've been all over the states, except for the north east, and I came back home to Montana 10 years ago. I probably would never want to live anywhere else - but love to travel and visit places! Where in MT was he born?

    I was born and raised in Washington State, moved to So Cal in 1982 to finish college, met my hubby in 83, married in 85 and the rest is history....my family all still lives in Washington. Hubby was born in a TINY town called Baker...I think its on the very southeast border? Might be southwest?

    Right here girls! Taaaaaaaaa Daaaaaaaa! Here I come to save the day! And unless you've tried haggis, you can't knock it. These days it has a casing much like a sausage, no longer sheep's tummy. So get over the gross out factor, there isn't any. And it is quite tasty as well! But to address the original question (not that anyone in here would *ever* digress) it all depends on the specific recipie you use. Ask the local Scottish Bakery to your house, and also ask them for a nibble, you will be amazed! Hey, it helps keep our kilts up lassie!
