A blatteroon is a kind of cake used in traditional celebrations on some of the Scottish islands and a couple of the English isles to the West. It �s a kind of sweet haggis made from oats, apple and honey. The origin of the word is debatable among linguists as to weather its introduction into the language comes from Scots Gaelic or Old Norse. As such, the Scots and English have battled over ownership of the word for centuries. Many now agree that the word is a combination of both language trees. The Old Norse word "blutder" meaning bag and the old Gaelic word "roon" means happiness. |

Blatteroon is like a spittoon.
(you remember those pots cowboys spit into in the saloon!)
The difference here is that you pee in a blatteroon.
In the old days it was called a bladderoon - but has changed to Blatteroon, even though the function is still the same -
you stand up and relieve your bladder in the blatteroon.

A blatteroon is a rare monkey found in the Amazon rain forest. It only comes out to pee. |
