Why? Like I've newer tried haggis but the general idea sounds tasty.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.

I am not talking about the tinned part but about the haggis. Like the thing gets so much bad rep in every media source ever that it's supposed to like be something disgusting. But I just don't see why.

We got something close, small herds of sheep which provide the aforementioned dairy products. Are lands are tropical and pretty wet year round so it's not as much of an issue to sustain such herds.

Plain as in cooked without any spices? Next thing you'll tell me they think you'd use uncastrated male sheep.

Also what's the english word for a male sheep? I knew it but like I can't remember now.

I am curious now, how is it eaten? Is it like your protein that you than build a dish around or is it more like an additive to dishes or what?

I have no idea what those words mean but I am going to be racist and assume it has to do with potatoes.

I would assume that it was a round nearing the end of its effective range, and that the same thing happened to this guy.

Canned tuna sandwhich/fish cock thing (meat salted and baked in a rye bread), dried soup mix (usually a mix of potato mash, carrot chucks, and celery), snack bar (various random types), mixed nuts, vitamin pills/chewies, salt pills/chewies, and sometimes a coconut milk drink or similar fruit drink.

Been living on this kinda meal for the past couple weeks and my partners gain weight. We did have some supplementation with local stuff but that was mostly out of season. Any problems?

Is there like a gallery of available hairstyles for the Army? I get that they're just gonna be generic variants of very short or buzzed side hair and buzzed to shortish hair on top but it would nice to have a selection.

Actually the bare minimum accompaniment is hot buttered toast.

Haggis is fairly versatile and will fit anywhere you might use something like black pudding/blood sausage. Yes it is involved in certain stereotypical dishes like chicken Balmoral which is a pan fried chicken breast stuffed with haggis and covered with (of course) whiskey sauce.

It's rather good battered and served with chips but that's best kept for when you are at a high end chippy, the average chip shop tends to use really cheap haggis that can be very disappointing.

It also makes a nice rissoto with mushrooms and awesome Pakora.
