scrapple comes to me via pennsylvania dutch, lancaster PA, 
and german/hungarian maternal grandfather who settled the 
family near the coal mines.  it was a staple for our 
family when in baltimore, md.

i FINALLY found it in New Mexico at John Brooks, a fairly 
local grocery store.  it is in the freezer section, which 
makes the scrapple a bit mooshie when cooked, but just as 
good.

i probably should try making it from scratch, since i 
occasionally make haggis from scratch.
