Saw that article this morning, myself. I think it's interesting that the US government has decided what is food and what is not.

A 2003 survey suggested that a third of US visitors to Scotland believed the haggis was an animal. Nearly a quarter thought they could catch one.

Hey, the haggis IS an animal! It's a close cousin to the nauga.

The US government does a lot of which it shouldn't and deciding what is edible is one of them.
