Several of those things are things I'm pretty sure I've eaten in a restaurant ('cause they were part of the ingredients not the main dish), but it's possible I've just seen 'em on the menu.
I think "Malt-O-Meal" is the only thing there I haven't at least heard of. [looks back] Oh that and the "Applets and Cotlets" (what's that?)
I like this list better than the other one going around! :-)
If you like cream of wheat, try malt-o-meal. It's similar, maltier. My spouse likes cream of wheat better, but i prefer malt-o-meal.
I thought scrapple was a Pennsylvania Dutch thing. Please put a strike through it. My best understanding is that it's what they make with the left overs from making sausage. I did try it once in that cultural exposure sort of mood, but, really....
What is Chapatis?
Chapati - A flat, unleavened, disk-shaped bread of northern India, made of wheat flour, water, and salt.
