Can you get pork scratchings Stateside?
I was thinking they'd make an excellent salty playa snack, but I've really only seen them in small packet Mr. Porky's form behind the bar in every single pub in Britain. Not exactly bacon, but close enough (fried pig fat, oh yes) and not as greasy for carting around in the bumbag (fannypack, if you will).

Around here we call them pork rinds, and they come in lots of flavors. Wal-Mart should have them, as well as any place that sells gasoline (petrol).momodumpling wrote:Can you get pork scratchings Stateside?

Re: Secret Bacon Code
In case you guys were wondering, that must be a ceremonial sacrifice of some sort. If you properly slaughter a pig, they're not conscious for it, and you wouldn't be able to catch the blood with just a bowl like that. If you do it mass-market, pig enters trough alive, pig comes out end of trough dead.
this is a thread about bacon, we love it, know where it comes from, and are going to continue to eat it. Get over yourself.

Food is not always mass produced. You've heard of blood sausage? (biroldo, boudin noir, blutwurst, morcilla, black pudding ...)Mr.Coffee wrote:In case you guys were wondering, that must be a ceremonial sacrifice of some sort.
Slide piggy through a trough as you behead him, and I would think that waste material from the intestines would get mixed in with the blood, as the sphincter opens up and everything pours out. Not acceptable for the sausage makers. In truth, pretty darn disgusting as thoughts go even for the meat, but as large intestinal contents are semi-liquid until toward the very end, there would be no way to separate the blood from the fecal material. How does one wash something off of a liquid?
You know, at this point, vegetarian food suddenly got a lot more appealing. But maybe that's just me.
When in doubt, hit the ignore key. You'll seldom miss anything worth reading, and your blood pressure will thank you.

That place sounds awesome - sort of like my basement, but with tap beer. Hope to fit it into our driving schedule.

Re:
these are 2 different products. pork rinds are a kind of crispy baconny thing quite nice but not pork scratchings which are burnt pig skin if you are really lucky you will get a hairy bit, its like the crackling you get from a really good roast pork joint. sigh i suspect they are on list of things you arent allowed to bring through customs though.momodumpling wrote:Heh, pork rinds.
