Haggis in the USA

I find it incredibly silly that haggis is banned in the US. I mean what's up with that? Apparantly it's because it contains lungs and heart. In what way is this different from other parts of the animal, it's dead either way?

Please post your thoughts on this.

Haggis

It is available in many cities for special nights and special people. No more can be said.

Lars, the US have lifted the ban on Haggis so no prob's now. There is a butcher in Kearny N.J. who makes and despatches it all over the U.S, can't remember the name, try Google, it doesn't have to be Burn's Night for the "Chieftain o the Pudden Race", try making a Haggis Curry!
