Make it yourself. Just add any chopped cooked pork (it doesn't have to be from pork neck bones, but they were inexpensive and an easy way to stretch a meal) or even sausage. Consult a formal recipe to find out what kind of seasoning you may want to add. Just add all that to your mush and chill it in a loaf pan to be sliced and fried when firm. You've just made scrapple!

P.S. See gagranny's post on Page 2 for a scrapple recipe. Sure sounds good!
