On my last visit to The Piggy Market I spotted something on the counter.... In the UK we have a pub snack called "porky scratchings", and this was a very upscale version. I bought a strip, with the intentions of making it last all week. By 5pm that day it was gone, my sodium & fat intake for the week exceeded, but very happy indeed.

This snack is ridiculously delicious and totally unhealthy. We order them only with a group of at least 4 but they come out of the fryer hot, crispy, light and slightly salted and seasoned. They are addictive but not for the faint hearted or health conscious! A treat to be enjoyed only occasionally-maybe with a pitcher of Moosehead for $11...
