Template:Itemheader This is a mix of rat parts and other stuff. It’s not that I’m being evasive about what’s in it, it’s that you really, really don’t want to know. Think about something else instead. Like, about how many points the word “scrapple” would score if you used it in a game of Scrabble.

- Scrapple is a meat patty from the Pennyslvania area consisting of various pork parts. It is composed of all the bits of a pig that can’t be used otherwise. Recipes vary, but common ingredients include heart, liver, brain, tongue and skin. It’s usually served with breakfast. Despite the picture, it does not look like sausage, and is actually quite tasty (and certainly no more disgusting than the average hot dog).
- Without the influence of blanks, bonuses, etc, the word “scrapple” would score 14 points if you used it in a game of Scrabble. (It would contain at least two bonus squares.)
- The word “scrapple” would score a minimum of 8 points if you used it in a game of Scrabble. (An example scoring 8 points would be if the opening move was “apple” with the A on the center square and both of the game's blank tiles representing P, then you turned “apple” to “scrapple”.)
- According to the Scrabble FAQ, the theoretical maximum score for 1 turn is 1,778 points, allowing only American English defined by the Official Scrabble Player's Dictionary (OSPD).

- In fact the largest score for "scrapple", in a regulation game of Scrabble with the original board, is 203 points, with the word covering two Triple Word Score spaces, in a play using seven tiles with one tile already in place on a non-premium square.
