Haggis Hurling?!?

Bob Blumer is a Canadian who has had a number of different food shows on the Food Network. One of these shows was called "Glutton For Punishment". Bob would learn about a particular food and then compete in a contest related to that food.

The following link should take you to the Food Network web site. Click on "Full Episodes" at the top of the screen. In the side window, scroll down to the Glutton For Punishment link, click on "see more" and scroll to "Haggis Hurling" and see Bob learn about making, eating and hurling haggis at the games.

Looks like they block it. I got a 'This video is not available in your country" message, so it must be restricted to Canada only.

Big Mikey - thanks for thinking of the rest of us!

Bob obviously didn't learn to make a very good haggis then.

I hope he is feeling better

If I told them my grandmother was born in Canada would they let me watch?

I enjoyed the show. He learned about varieties of haggis and other delicacies, scotch, sport, and of course, kilts. They tried to condense the Scottish experience into a half-hour, semi-educational show.
