Dubious comparison

[edit]

The article currently states drob is "similar to a haggis", though there is little justification given for this statement.
Comparing the list of ingredients for drob (lamb offal, onion, boiled eggs, bread soaked in milk, garlic, etc) to those for haggis (sheep offal, suet, oatmeal soaked in stock, etc) suggest the only things they have in common are salt and pepper. Also, the distinctive feature of haggis is that it is boiled in a sheep's stomach, while that of drob is that it is wrapped in caul (like faggots) and baked in a loaf tin.
Also, the article claims there are few dishes in the world similar to drob, yet the images here suggest it is something between a meatloaf and a gala pie, neither of which are rare or unusual.
So unless these claims can be substantiated, they need to go. Moonraker12 (talk) 22:29, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
