"Do you like haggis?"

Do not...DO NOT...suggest that Werner Herzog would eat vegetarian food, let alone actually be a vegetarian.

I tracked down this clip; I believe it comes from the Burden of Dreams doc

considering Herzog's comments on the obscenity of nature, I don't imagine that eating of any kind is one of the great pleasures of his life

I've been relishing that clip for a while now. I love how he says "growing" with so much disdain and disgust. Needless to say, Burden of Dreams is on my Netflix queue.

He really outdoes himself when he refers to the harmony of nature as the "the harmony of overwhelming and collective murder"

It sounds like it has been assumed before that ol' Herzong was a vegetarian.

Also, props for being able to put something down for its wealth of vitamins.
