No. Salad is intrinsically contrary to the idea of PA Greek food. The "sauce" is actually butt loads of mince (ground beef) with a secret blend of herbs, spices, and fats. So it's a hot dog drowned in beef, a burger with extra beef, chips with beef and cheese... You get the idea.

I actually tried haggis while I was in Scotland. It wasn't too bad. I also liked shepherd's pie and I forget what the beef version was called, but I enjoyed it as well. Didn't care much for blood sausage or kidney pie though.
I remember being at the Edinburgh Comedy Festival and Greg Proops saying "People of Scotland: salt is not the only spice."
