where did scrapple originate from
Q. Where does the word 'scrapple' come from? A. The easy answer is that scrapple is made from the scraps of the pig -- scraps to scrapple is not a big jump. But that explanation would also be incorrect. The origins of the word scrapple actually stem from Germany, where scrapple was called Panhas. Scrapple as a food has its origins with the Pennsylvania Dutch, who in Germany called it panhas. A slice of panhas would be said as panhaskroeppel. panhaskrÃ¶ppel
