A SCOTTISH butcher has declared that the world’s first national square sausage day will take place next month.
We hae meat has said March 25 will be a day dedicated to honouring and enjoying the popular Scottish delicacy.
The business is inviting families across Scotland to join in the inaugural celebration by enjoying a square sausage breakfast, lunch or dinner on the day chosen because 25 is a square number.
Commercial manager of We hae meat Craig Chalmers said: “We have a genuine passion for the square sausage and we’re very excited to declare March 25 the world’s first national square sausage day.

“What’s not to love about a square sausage? It’s locally produced and the perfect shape for a breakfast roll, with no slicing required and it won’t fall out.
“And because it’s thinner it takes less time to cook than a link sausage, meaning when you switch to square sausage, you’re taking a small step in reducing your energy consumption.”
As part of national square sausage day, the business will be donating meals to the Dailly Community Pantry and Dailly Primary School as well as sharing tips on social media on the best way to cook and serve a slice.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
