Food Import (Again)
Sorry to regurgitate this one - It is my understanding that Haggis in particular, but British beef is due to be permitted for import as of January 2018.
Firstly, can anyone clarify this? Secondly I hope to import a personal amount of Scottish Lorne Sausage either on our next trip home or via the mail (Assuming we can come up with a plan to keep it cold).
I have spoken with CBP and all the other departments who can't give me a straight answer other than 'red meat and fish is permitted, poultry is not'.
Anyone?

If verified, I might be able to bring some decent bacon back from the UK. Although I will settle for half decent bacon (sealed), from any UK supermarket.

Scots haggis exports to Canada to resume after 46 years - BBC News
The haggis issue is that the U.S. won't allow the heart or the lung (can't remember which) to be in *any* meat import.
I make my own Lorne sausage. I can send you the recipe. I also make my own tattie scones, bridies, sausage rolls and tablet.
