There should be ;) But, it is available in northern Delaware, at least.
I had to serve it at the diner where I worked in college. Bleck.
Trying to hold my breath all the way out from kitchen to table...
fortunately, it was a tiny diner.
Delaware also gets some southern tradition overflow. I was amused by
the juxtaposition of scrapple and grits on the menu. I often had people
ask "what on earth" about one or the other, but never both.
