Ok guys and girls. I have heard that this is a mid - atlantic only food. You can't get it anywhere else in the country except for Delaware, Maryland, certain parts of Virginia, and certain parts of Pennsylvania that I know of. Scrapple. If you don't know what it is than you don't want to know. It's made from a pig, everything thats from a pig goes into making scrapple. I know some of you are ready to heave but its taste great. It just helps to take a few years off of your life. In the old days they would take all the stuff from inside the pig - put it into the skull and boil it and some how make it that way - I don't know how it is made in the "modern era" .

This sounds like something we have here in the midwest/great lakes region. Its called "head cheese". All the unused inards of the hog, chopped up and boiled down inside the head "skull". The result , I suspect from all the collagen, comes out in a gelatine like form. I have never had the stomach to try it, but the "old timers" eat it right up. Some of the more exotic things I have sampled: Bear, alligator, rattle snake, sundried squid - kind of like chewing salty rubber, and more common wild game like whitetail deer, elk, carribou, ducks, geese, pheasant, etc. I havn't gotten the guts (pun intended[}:)]) to try it yet, but we have a local restaurant that will serve authentic haggis, if given 24 hour notice. Maybe someday I will have the stomach to "have the stomach" (for those who know what haggis is).

Maybe he might have decided to try some of the cullinary delights were discussing (not wise unless your brave) and now he's driving the porcellien bus, or calling earl, or praying to the porcellien god, or (my favorite) have a technicolor yawn.

Mdme la Moo,

On the contrary, my co-workers think I'm really busy. As for the laughing to myself, well.....it has been said that my men will follow me anywhere, mostly out of curiuosity......

Nora, the shark thing sounds like gravloks, a Scandinavian dish of seasoned fi***hat is smoked, by burying it......of course we are talking about a group of people famous for getting liquored up, hopping in boats and pillaging the English Isles for the weekend.. I guess you could go ahead bury your kimchi at the same time, since you got the hole dug anyway.

Now Haggis, haggis is the culinary pinnalce of the scots.....need we really say anymore. I'm more inclined to go with the menudo (the food not the group) than haggis. Let's face it, it wasn't the RAF that saved the UK during the Battle of Britain, it was the sudden realization on the German's part that if they invaded Britain, they'd have to stop eating French food and start eating English food.

Hot dogs are just an American version of Haggis.

Haggis is traditionally served at Christmas, why? so your gratefull for all the good food we get the rest of the year.

Geeze,
You guys are making munedo sound sort good!
And its not that you dont want to know whats in it,
its that the person cooking dosnt know themselves.
Could be goat, could be pig.
A little dog to take the edge off,
it all the tripe, the absolute leftovers from the butchers, all the stuff they cant possibly make into anything else, all ground up together like hamburger meat, then boiled or simmered in a vegie soup.
And I mean everything left over, nothing is thrown out.
You have to skim a layer of grease off the top just to see the stuff.
Man, this sucks, I wasgoing to have some tacos, till I read this!
