There’s more to Scottish food than Haggis – which, in itself, can be a pretty rank concoction for those not into blended offal, blood and oats. 

But if you were to look at a list of Scottish foods in writing, those who aren’t au fait with the unique Northern cuisine would understandably feel a bit queasy.

But set aside the cocks, the skinks and the baws from your fragile mind and you will find some actual delicacies that taste way better than they sound.

In a surprise ending to Friday night’s EastEnders, Kim Hubbard unwrapped a gift from enemies of hubby Vincent who couldn’t afford a horse’s head – and the head of a pig rolled out onto her living room floor as she screamed. 

It was, we assume, supposed to be a chilling omen of the sinister showdowns to come – but all viewers could think of was the Pig-gate drama involving David Cameron earlier this year.

Far from reviewing their thoughts on the episode of EastEnders, Twitter users were too busy trying to be the first to get a Cameron joke onto the internet.
