Hello!

It's Burns night here on 25th Jan, and I've bought some haggis (seems to be in keeping with what I'm allowed!) and I really want neeps and tatties with it! I know I can't have the potatoes, but am I allowed to eat parsnips, swede or turnips? Don't want to fall at the first hurdle...day one today!

Thanks

hmmm... don't know about the haggis...or "neeps and taddies" for that matter! (actually I don't know what any of those are!! :? )

...but parsnips and turnips are ok!

Good luck! and welcome to the beach!

Haggis is a Scottish delicacy! It's a mixture of the minced heart, lungs, and liver of a sheep or calf blended with suet, onions, oatmeal, and seasonings, boiled in the stomach of the animal.

I wouldn't think it would be allowed, because of the liver and oats.

:( That's spoiled my Burns night! Never mind, just have to serve it up to the rest of the clan! I'll just have the vegetables then!

Thanks for all your replies ~ much appreciated!

Parsnips are actually rated "very limited" for all phases. I don't know what they are, so I can't explain why.

Turnips are indeed fine for all phases.
