Its strange for me reading some of these threads. I have spent all my life living in the midlands, and grew up and worked in the heart of it.
Here we live on scratchings, Im not sure how many different brands are made here but it is well into double figures. I hadnt realised that it was difficult to get them elsewhere.
anyway, the Black Country Dialect dictionary list
Scratchings Black Country delicacy - pork rind deep fried
If you tell me the consistancy you want, id be glad to steer you in the right direction.
by the way, pork crunch is a type of scratching but not really a scratching, as it is mostly air.
KVE used to be the hardest, many a black country dentist has been kept in a living due to these rock like pieces of pork.
At the moment, Roberts is crown prince, with a fair size bag and a decent texture. They also sent some to Iraq recently for the soilders (not really clever as they are sending pork to a muslim country)
hope some of this helped, but i doubt it.
PS, black country = west midlands
