I love these things and recently ordered some Ms Traditional Pork Scratchings 99g from Wolverhampton.... absolutely gorgeous! Got them on ebay (£7.45 for 12 x 99gram bags) and they are, by far, the best I have tasted. Pork scratching world concurs and they get a 9/9 result www.porkscratchingworld.com/UK_2005.htmlAnyone else here into scratchings?

Comming "from the land of svines" I have to love them.
The best of them is the ones that comes from of the steak (rib steak translated from danish) or if you have a deep fryer and get a nice piece of pigskin (and I am not talking about footballs here) I can not get enough of them..
Try breaking them into small pieces and mix with popcorn, like an unhealthy salat, that my friends is a meal for the gods..

oooh, pork scratchings. One of my dirty little secrets. There is a small industrial estate about 15 minutes drive away, with a factory that makes these. It smells foul down wind, but the scratchings are superb! I believe Asda sells them, but cant remember the name.
edit: good site that! I think there is a similar one dedicated to jaffa cakes as well, another vice of mine!

Yes, I believe the guy in the grey suit has spotted one He's definitely spotted something hasn't he? Could be a pig on the loose, could be a burger van, could be a portable toilet or it could even be a random fenion! "Umbrellas up lads...... here we go, here we go, here we go" CHAAAARGE!!! "oi you fekkin' bastard you nearly poked my eye out with that thing" "here we go here we go here we goooooo!" "fookin' pile into that bastard with your umbrellas boys!!" WHAM! BAM! SPLAT! The Irish are unique in that they use "umbrellas" instead of guns to catch their prey... when their opposition start pelting them with peas (out of their peashooters) the command is "up brollies!" and they use their extended umbrellas as defence shields........ Someone please stop me

I picked up a bag of these MS traditional scratchings from Tesco in Ashby-de-la-Zouch (near to works head office) and I whole-heartedly agree with Mike.
They are excellent scratchings, crunchy with enough fat. They are also a decent sized bag as well, not stingy on the portion.
Top Stuff!

Claus, I will pay you for postage mate..... I REALLY want to sample the Danish versions now my teeth have been repaired. I still class the MS scratchings as the finest I have EVER tasted but will never know if that's true unless I get a sample of the Danish scratchings PS: your cable, pot, connectors etc. are in the post tomorrow. Mike.
