Bonny Burn’s Night With Omega 3 Rich Haggis

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012
Vegetarian Haggis - Piper

Pipe in your Vegetarian Haggis

If you fancy joining in the Robert Burn’s Day celebrations with a Burn’s night supper, but would rather not partake of the saturated animal fat drenched bag of sheep’s offal, guts and reproductive precious bits, which is Haggis Pudding then read on.

We have found a vegetarian haggis recipe that has walnuts and red kidney beans rather than scrapie brains and real kidneys.

Walnuts are not as reliable a source of vegetarian Omega-3 as Nuique Omega-3 DHA rich algae, as walnuts have only ALA, not EPA and DHA, but every little bit helps and it’s more useful to your body than saturated animal fat.

Here’s the recipe for the walnut, oat and kidney bean Scottish Haggis Pudding Recipe (‘great chieftain o the puddin race’).

And here’s some ideas for the perfect Burn’s Night supper.

Of course you could just let someone else do all the work and eat out.

Will Humans Escape Dalek Fate? Is There A Dr Who’ll Save Us?

Daleks: Similar fate for humans?

Are we doomed to be like the daleks?

BBC Dr Who’s arch enemies, the Daleks, have a history that is similar to the one humans are creating for themselves (ourselves).

The Daleks were the result of a long toxic war amongst a race called the Kaleds. Just like humans it was a toxic, poisonous, environment and health destroying war on both themselves and their planet.

A Kaled scientist named Davros cleverly predicted that the Kaled race would end up as useless, immobile squidlike mutants and created a time travelling fully armed, armour-plated, walnut whip-shaped, spotty mobilty scooter that they could live and travel about inside.

Having learnt little from this BBC fable-ish parable, humans are busily trashing the planet and the sea and creating , not quite as extreme, but similar problems for earthlings. We get more sickly and more infertile as each new atmosphere, rainforest and ocean destroying day goes past.

Miscarriage during pregnancy is becoming more and more common.

Doctor Who and Scientists have suggested we will end up as a race of morons if we don’t rectify our intake of essential fatty acids , in particular Omega-3 DHA. Some claim that like the Daleks we risk ‘devolution’ not evolution.

Certainly there is little doubt that humans are as arrogant and conceited as Daleks believing we are the supreme beings in the universe.

Dr Who and Amy, out to save humankind

Will we survive?

Fortunately for those wanting to join Dr Who on a different path there is a non-toxic, sustainable, healthy solution to our predicament of destiny. V-Pure is pure algal Omega-3 DHA EPA essential fatty acids approved by the Vegetarian Society, registered with the Vegan Society and, as it is sustainably farmed, it is one of the purest value-for-money forms of EPA and DHA that ethical concious consumers can buy.

Of course it’s going to take more than a few algae Omega-3 capsules to save the planet but it’s not a bad place to start.
