Ages ago when I taught a largish number of Korean students, they would occasionally invite me to make-it-yourself sushi parties. My favourite part was when they would pull out the can of Spam and say "this is traditional Korean food" as they added it to the ingredients. This still cracks me up.

All this reminds me that we are having some scrapple with our Christmas breakfast this year.

We'll have scrambled eggs, and scrapple, and cut up grapefruit and oranges fruit salad, and moravian sugar cake. But the scrapple is a special treat this year. We don't usually do that.

Scrapple is yummy goodness.

It's awesome if you slice it thin and get it crispy on the sides. I don't care for the soggy thick stuff.

Ohhh scrapple. I can't find that stuff down here anywhere - and I get a craving for it every now and again. Not many PA dutch folks in Central NC

I've heard it's pretty much the same as liver mush. (I've also heard that's complete bullshit. Whatever--as far as I'm concerned they can have each other.)

These look like a better bet.

I see 'liver pudding' at the market a fair bit - but I guess I'm just too skeered to try it

And Bubba, thanks for the heads up, I'll look for it at the Farmer's market the next time I go!
