Scrapple?

It's offal. Put a gun to my head and I reckon I'd take a bite. Otherwise, get away from me with that stuff.

Scrapple, goetta, and souse. I have eaten and enjoyed them all. You will likely be less squeamish about the ingredients if you are butchering the animal and trying to get the most out of it. After that, things made of "scraps" just aren't that big of a deal.

Of course I started eating them when I was too young to know any different. I haven't seen or eaten any of the three in decades.
 
Pretty good stuff. It makes an acceptable substitute for N.C, liver pudding or mush. Goes great with grits and over easy eggs. It actually can make a pretty good sandwich. I like it fried kinda hot so it gets crispy edges. If you fry it on lower heat it just melts into a puddle. Thanks to all of the yankees in the area I can find it frozen at Publix. I wish they carried liver pudding. Never had that Goetta stuff.

Scrapple is aimed at you Northern Folks.
Down South, we got Head Cheese, also known as Souse, Chitlins and other delicacies made from parts.
Parts is parts and all animals have some.
Maybe years ago during my cool era I went to an historic old downtown Italian Restaurant in San Francisco.
I sat at the counter.
The guy next to me said he had been coming there for over 50 years!
And he was having a specialty dish!
Sweetbreads!
So I get out of the hills, go uptown, upscale!
And here’s a guy eating-

Sweetbread is a culinary name for the thymus. This is especially of calf and lamb, and, less commonly, of beef and pork. The "heart" sweetbreads are more spherical in shape, while the "throat" sweetbreads are more cylindrical in shape.

It’s hard being cool!
It was this place- Been there since 1849 -

I remember my Italian Grandmother making head cheese.

As for scrapple I lived in Lancaster County, PA for 13 years, and managed to avoid scrapple. I know what it is made from.

I also never tried pigs stomach, although i wish I had

Never had pig stomach that I know of anyway-
But Tripe - time to gripe about Tripe!
Menuado is just for you!
It’s been described as pieces of cow stomach floating in grease.
And I have posted about misfiring and selecting that Lingua Taco.
And I have tried the real Navajo Taco made from mutton.
Stronger tasting than any wild game I ever had!
