Starting the week of Independence Day and ending with Hawaii. We feature a small portion of each states' past, foods, and the people who make up the state.

National Scrapple Day
On November 9th, the first pork dish to be invented in the United States is commemorated on National Scrapple Day.. For those not familiar with scrapple, it is traditionally a mush of pork scraps and trimmings mixed with cornmeal, wheat flour, and spices, such as sage, thyme, savory, and black pepper. The mush is now converted into a semi-solid loaf, which can be cut and pan-fried.
