COP26: American officials hilariously try Scottish food before Glasgow trip for climate conference
Officials at the US Embassy in London sampled traditional Scottish foods and drinks such as deep-fried Mars bars, haggis, and Cullen skink ahead of his trip to Glasgow for the COP26 climate summit in hilarious footage.
Ambassador Philip T Reeker and his staff can be seen with other officials in the footage trying the Scottish favourites
The local delicacies were overwhelmingly a hit, even if Reeker observed that “you probably should sell Haggis with the actual description of what’s in it.”
At one point Cullen Skink sounds like it is referred to as Colin Skunk....oh dear!!

See haggis is amazing, people decide not to like it when they hear what its made from.
as someone who comes from the area that first deep fried mars bars i can 100% say they are indeed Scottish
Deep fried Mars bars are not a Scottish delicacy. This was just some fish and chip frier mucking around.

I don’t get why people think it’s that crazy to fry chocolate in a batter. Loads of countries do similar dishes. It’s pretty much like a chocolate filled donut. Not that weird or any more calorific than a donut either really.

your sorta right, my uncle worked in the chipper it was invented in, he told me a lad was was just mucking about as a joke, tried it and found out it was amazin
They are all so charming, that never happens.
Yes the Scottish actually invented deep frying chocolate. Americans always thinking they got there first.

Nah Americans deep fired sweets way longer ago. And they actually eat it. Deep fried mars bar was a gimmick and i know of no one who eats it.
Square sausage should be exported round the world

@@crabby2717 did you miss the part where I said I was English? 😂😂 Of course I’m going to ‘take the pish’ a little 😂😂 (Also as a side note….Haggis isn’t originally Scottish, and was quite common to not only the British isles but across the Scandi lands too, it just well out of favour in other places but the Scots decided to keep eating this delicious treat….there is a great well of wisdom hiding deep, deep, very very deep within the Scottish folk 😂)
Im scots born in Glasgow never had deep fried mars bar!!!!! Its not on chip shop menus in Scotland!!!!!

I think it's outrageous making our American cousins eat Scottish food like that. How can you expect them to enjoy it without melted , fake , cheese poured all over it and only natural ingredients used. The least you could have done is cover it in some MSG for them.
Cheese okay we can let you away with that but Avocado you done lost your mind lmao Sun what you playing at where the hell are the neeps and tatties with the haggis i mean come on....
Americans have no high ground when it comes to food.
WoW!
NOw lift ban on haggis in USA
No deep fried pizza ?
MacSweens make the best Haggis, spicy, crispy and very very tasty.
I love the scottish rolls they make ,they look burnt on top ,hardtop find down here though
