Delaware is entrenched in a foodie civil war that can be summed up with one question: Do you like to eat scrapple?
In this age-old conflict, there’s no middle ground. Some kids have grown into grandparents, now arming their grandbabies with forks to fight hunger on this pork-flavored battlefield. Yet, others have switched sides over the years, becoming traitors by joining the vegan resistance.
