So...who else here likes scrapple?

[TK421]

I guess I'm just trying to get a conversation started...I'm on my third glass of Merlot now, so I want to chat! :D

[Random_Australian]

1. What is scrapple?

[TK421]

3. Oh my....check this out!

[Aristus]

2. Um...TK421...

Why aren't you at your post?

:+




Are you looking for some scrapple to eat?

[TK421]

4. I'm at my post...but whats that orange shit on top of my scrapple?

and do I see maple syrup there? I know some people like that, but it has to be ketchup, damnit!

[Aristus]

5. Shaved orange peel?

:shrug:

[TK421]

6. Ah...nice touch there! I never saw scrapple dressed up in such an

endearing manner! You see...thats the type of thing you would see in a fine French restaurant....I'll just eat the stuff between two pieces of potato bread ( and maybe with some cheese ). Have you ever had it?

[Mutley]

7. No! Nooooonononono.

No. I don't think so.

:puke:

[TK421]

8. Awwww...come on Mutley! Have you ever tried the stuff? or have you

just heard negative things about it from others?

[Mutley]

10. I've never tried it, but I know what it is.

That's enough for me.

[TK421]

12. UUrrrrgghhh.....you don't know whats good, do you?

:spank: Well, at least I tried

[Mutley]

14. It might taste delightful.

But I could never, ever get past what it's made of.

[TK421]

16. Just close your eyes and let your imagination run wild, Mutley...

say to yourself...."It's only scrapple....it's only scrapple". :7

[KitchenWitch]

9. I do

And I do not wish to know what is in it!

[TK421]

11. Don't worry a bit! Just check out post #3

that should clear things up a bit! By the way....most of us eat hot-dogs and shit like that, not caring whats inside...but damned if they don't taste good!!!

[trackfan]

13. I tried it for the first time earlier this year

and thought it was just okay. I didn't know it would be so much like dog food. I would have it again if it was someone's - or some place's - specialty, but wouldn't actually seek it out.

[TK421]

15. Believe it or not, there are certain grades to the stuff....for example

if you go out to Lancaster, PA...the Amish make one hell of a scrapple. Sometimes you can buy lousy scrapple at the local supermarket, but just like hot dogs ( sometimes too mushy ) you can strike out. Just the smell of this stuff cooking in the morning with some eggs is enough to make me jump out of bed. Mind you, I'm the type that hits the snooze button in increments of 20 minutes....

[KitchenWitch]

17. The Amish RULE scrapple

I like my scrapple dredged in flour, fried up and eaten with ketchup and eggs.

[TK421]

18. bless your little heart, KitchenWitch...I do believe you just gave me the

shivers! :o

[KitchenWitch]

19. How did I do that?

[TK421]

21. Dredged in flour? Eaten with eggs? Thats the way nature intended it to

be, my dear! Now you've made me hungry! DAMMIT!!!! Now I have to stop drinking this damn wine and get something to eat

[dancing kali]

20. me

and my husband. Can't get it here so I found a recipe for it... haven't made any yet since I don't really want to dwell on what goes into it.My in-laws always have some waiting for us when we're back visiting.

So does anyone outside of Pennsylvania know what Scrapple is? I've mentioned it to people from various places and they all look at me blankly and say "never heard of it".

[TK421]

22. When I lived in Florida and mentioned it to people, they looked at me like

I had grown a tail or something...had absolutely no frigging clue what I was talking about. When I told them what it was, they seemed repulsed

[RebelOne]

37. There are many people in Florida who know

what scrapple is. When I was a child and living in South Florida, my mother would serve it quite often.

[KitchenWitch]

24. You can buy it online

23. I like "Scrapple From the Apple"

[GoddessOfGuinness]

25. One of my favorite games!

:rofl:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

26. Eewwww!

I tried eating poultry again. It worked for a bit. Then I found a tiny feather on a chicken wing. That was the permanent end.

No way I could consume the shit in scrapple.

[TK421]

27. It's good for ya' man! Put some hair on yer chest !!!!!!!!!

( spits tobacco and scratches crotch ).......

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

30. As a woman, I don't need any hair on my chest.

Anyway, I prefer being a whiskey drinking pescarian lesbian than a scrapple eating man.

[TK421]

28. Time for TK421 to go to bed...I just might dream about scrapple tonight

if I'm lucky.............goodnight DU

[u4ic]

29. I thought it was some sort of soft drink

:shrug:

At least it's not headcheese...:puke:

[Duer 157099]

31. I would try it if it were made from sausage

(but then, sausage is probably made from all the stuff scrapple is made from too?)

Sausage and cornmeal, that doesn't sound so bad.

[NMMNG]

32. Ugh

I never heard of the stuff when I lived in New England. Then I moved to the Mid-Atlantic and began hearing about it. I decided to check it out when I was in the grocery store one day and was grossed out by the grayish brick of stuff I saw. My theory on Scrapple is that it's made from the scraps that fall on the processing-room floor, mixed in with the dirt that gets swept up along with them. Hence the name "Scrapple". x(

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

34. Where in the mid-Atlantic were you?

I'm in North Jersey and I've never seen scrapple anywhere. Although, that's much closer to New England than most of the mid-Atlantic.

[NMMNG]

35. Maryland

It seems to be fairly popular around here. :shrug:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

36. Weird.

I think I'll stay in Jersey with random trips to the CT house. I'm safe from scrapple this way.

[Common Sense Party]

33. I like to drink Snapple while playing Scrabble. Does that count?
