Many countries have special delicacies that anyone who isn't a local might find disgusting.

The UK is no exception, with a number of national dishes that are unappealing to the rest of the world.

We've compiled a list of iconic British foods — made out of everything from sheep innards to sea snails — that most people outside of the UK would probably find gross.

Here are 25 classically British meals that many people would avoid:

Haggis — Scotland's national dish — is made by mixing sheep's pluck (heart, liver, and lungs) with oatmeal, onion, and seasoning. Though haggis has traditionally been cooked in the animal's stomach, it's usually made in sausage casing today.



Jellied eels are a favourite of cockney Londoners, but the dish is far less popular outside of the UK.



Stargazy pie is a Cornish meal made with baked pilchards, eggs, and potatoes, and finished with a pastry top. It was named for the way the fish poke their heads out of the crust.
