Really? The only scrapple (correct spelling - "scrabble" is a word-game)
I've ever encountered was made with pork sausage! (And cornmeal mush, of
course.) It's really quite good, pan-fried until the outside is brown and
crisp, then doused in maple syrup.... don't knock it 'til you've tried it!


That is certainly what I remember.

I remember once, my mother got someone to make beef scrapple for her
special, because she quit eating pork for religious reason.

I like sausage. And I like cornmeal mush. But I never could learn to like
scrapple.

Of course now we pretend we've got class and have always called it "Polenta"

my bad mis spell but you can eat all you like for all of us as soon as I
saw it being made NOPE YOU CAN HAVE IT

FYI anytime you eat peant butter enjoy the roaches

In article , says...

Do we know that pork really is absent from cat food? I mean maybe, just
maybe the companies put pork in as filler (as was said pigs are filthy
animals), but don't say anything? Except the one that's PORK on the label.
Just a thought.



Pigs are not Filthy animals given a chance a pig is much cleaner then a dog
however a pig outdoors will roll in mud to protect itself from sunburn
Don't know what the UV protection level of mud is

(Oscar Meyer, etc.) use some sort of artificial sausage
casing, instead. And "menudo" and "tripe" are well-regarded delicacies in
a lot of cultures. (Not to mention "sweetbreads".)

Hands up who knows what "sweetbreads" are. I do, do you?

It's not that pork is more or less expensive than other meat meals. The
range in price for meat meals is waaaaay more variable based on the ash
content than on the species from which it is derived.

Pork isn't all that common becasue it isn't all that commonly eaten by
humans. Think about how often you eat beef or chicken or turkey and how
seldom you eat pork. As much as I like a good pork roast, it been
months and months since we had one in this house. Reminds me to talk to
the boss (my wife) about that.

Ironically, pork use in pet foods has increased substantially in foods
shipped outside the US. Manufacturers have been forced to substitute
pork for beef in many foods shipped overseas due to BSE rules enforced
by some countries. At the same time there are a number of Muslim
countries who refuse to admit any pet foods into the country that
contain pork.

Pork is perfectly good protein source for cats and there isn't any
nutritional reason not to use it.

We dont eat that much pork in our house and when we do, our cats are not too
hip on it.

Right - same critter, but still the same issue. We humans consume many
times more beef or chicken than we do hogs - regardless of the typs of
pork used.

We eat turkey bacon though...but it has to be fixed extra crisp ;-) for
them...jk..
