Nathan's dogs are good but since they are Kosher, they are all beef (which is a viable ingredient for a hot dog - much more s than mechanically separated chicken ;-)

Scrapple is found in Amish country. I was going to say it is a 'sausage' but it's not. It's a mush. (Hey - that's what Wikiplace calls it..) I would think that if it was made in England they would call it a pudding - need to run that past our overseas correspondent. (Matter of fact, that vast collection of the total knowledge of the universe previously mentioned says this: "In composition, preparation, and taste, scrapple is similar to the white pudding popular in Ireland, Scotland, and parts of England and the spicier Hog's pudding of the West Country of England.") If you find yourself in Bridgeville, Delaware the second weekend of October you can take in the flavors at the Apple Scrapple Festival. And get to participate in the scrapple toss...

If you stop for breakfast at many of the truckstops in Pennsylvania you will find scrapple as an offering with your eggs along with the usual bacon and ham. If you see someone eating scrapple you know they aren't a jihadi. Of course I have a recipe.

I've had it. With breakfast. In Pennsylvania. At a truck stop. It's not bad.

I can see bits of olive in the mixture in the near future....just by way of an example. *ahem*
