The first time we ordered scrapple, we ordered it because no one at our breakfast table knew what it was.
Was it made from meat? Bread? Soy? Something else entirely?
When we Googled it upon our return home, our stomachs turned over: Scrapple is a mush made from what we can only imagine is leftover pig: pig head, pig heart, pig liver.
Yum?
