World-renowned delicacy?

[edit]

I took out that phrase for the admittedly subjective reason that I've never heard of it and, while not a foodie, I have travelled quite a bit etc. I guess the PGI implies some renown, but worldwide? The world is a big place. Also it wasn't ref'd. Also not sure the word "delicacy" is the right one. Maybe that's subjective too since here in Canada Twiglets area a bit of a delicacy, at least for me :) Anyway if someone wants to restore it I won't argue. --Cornellier (talk) 16:00, 12 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It would probably be more neutral to say that it has been called (in Scotland) a "world-renowned delicacy". [1] I think in truth, you may be right that its virtues have not penetrated far beyond the UK. Alexbrn talk|contribs|COI 16:05, 12 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
7.81+ billion humans is a very large human population. IMO (and maybe that is ONLY in my opinion, but I suspect in the opinion of a few others, also) the claim deserves some 'qualification'. Many of us will NOT be eating something like that; the vegan version is readily available, made with black beans, (Scottish? or Irish?) oats, mushrooms, sauteed onions and garlic, and some added vegetable proteins (possibly in powdered form).[1] MaynardClark (talk) 12:53, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
