Well, they aren't Beagles.
This is scrapple. A Philadelphia delicacy. Mostly it's fried like this and served at breakfast. It is called scrapple because it is made from -- well, uh, scraps left over from other pork products. Like... well, ears, snout, etc. You either love it or hate it. I'm not fond of it although I eat it, but Joe and my sister love it. It doesn't taste bad at all. I just don't like the texture.
Let's end with something a little prettier -- downtown Philly. It really is a pretty city.
And that's it for this time.

Love scrapple! Did you know Barry Manilow had a beagle named Bagel?
ReplyDeleteI'll give you my scrapple. Ha, ha! No, I didn't know that about Barry Manilow.
DeleteI haven't heard of this before,, the city is amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI agree. I love living here.
DeleteKathy, I love the Philly picture. No, no way do I ever want any of that scrapple stuff... Wishing you and Joe a great weekend, xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteYou might like it. We begin eating it as very young children so I guess we don't know the difference. It tastes good, I just don't like the texture.
DeleteI love Scrapple! I had Kim try it once. When she asked me what was in it I said "cornmeal, mostly cornmeal" :) She's not a fan.
ReplyDeleteAnd you're right. It is mostly cornmeal. Msybe that's why I'm not a fan either.
DeleteOh! My dad loved scrapple and I hated it...still hate it. It is the texture that I can't stand. BUT I will eat potted meat which just grosses all my kids out. lol xo Diana
ReplyDeleteIt's the texture for me too, not the taste so much. I've never tried potted meat but it doesn't sound appetizing.
DeleteSo now we know how to speak like YOU!!! BEG-uls!!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteHow else would you say it?
