How do you like your eggs?

[*Deidre*]

Scrapple. Not sure I've ever had that. Do you make this yourself?

Scrapple is only the most delicious use of pork scraps and offal that the world has ever known. Parts is parts.

This brought a tear to my eye. :`-(






Ode to Scrapple - by Dave Bonta

Sing scrapple: buckwheat-
& cornmeal mush-stuffed
relative of head cheese,
the hog’s gray matter.
Plus every part
that couldn’t be cured
into ham or crammed
into sausage casings —
some good foot meat, perhaps,
a corkscrew piece of tail —
up to & including
the oleaginous grunt.
Always the butt of jokes
for the ignorant mass
of weiner-eaters who prefer
their pig scraps pink
& prefitted for the throat.
This is a square meal
the color of earth.
It’s what’s for supper
when you haven’t eaten
since breakfast, & want
something you can
slap in the hot
fat of a griddle & fry
until it grows a thick
brown skin. Then
serve with Grade-A
maple syrup, go hog-
wild, wallow in the gray
& gritty mush.

"Oleaginous grunt", that's some funny shit right there.

that is. if i ever eat it, i will have to bow my head and chant this poem, prior to.

I like my eggs on a plate. Da!

so picky lol

Scrambled eggs with nutmeg and cinnamon! Served with peach preserves!

Ok. THIS, sounds really good. I'm going to try this. Peach preserves, is that like jam?
