I saw Guy Fieri on Dinners, Drive-Ins and Dives eat fried Scrapple a couple of nights ago. It looked pretty good and he raved about it. I always thought Scrapple was pigs brains but evidently I was way off base. This was cooked and boiled pork parts made in a type of mush or pudding. I would eat it but being from the South I will eat virtually anything if it is fried.

But....What is "puddin"?

Growing up (also in the South), I typically heard scrambled brains and eggs referred to as scrapple.

Wikipedia says pig parts etc. with no mention of brains. If Wikipedia says it, it must be true.

Now that I know it is not brains I would really like to try it. Fried, of course!

That's just 'cause no Southerner has edited it yet.

Ha Ha Ha! Love it! I will put that down as a task to complete before the day is out.

^^^ For some reason the "pot pudding" doesn't sound so bad. I would give it a try. My wife uses turkey parts in her dressing and it is delicious.

lol - I know many people who would be extremely disappointed by that kind of "pot" pudding.
