Potted Meat Product.... (WAS) [rescue] SCRAPPLE

[Mike Free]

yeah, potted meat food product....it's not terrible, they have it so
peppered you can't taaste anything but spices. It's basically ground
leftovers, mixed with spices like pepper and mustard.

I've always thought the proper way to eat it was as the meat of a sandwich
with mayo or mustard...
