These are the best porky cracklings I have ever had. You get a lot more for your money than you would in the supermarket. The flavor of them is astronomical. They were delivered quickly too. Highly recommended this company.

Best scratchings I've ever discovered…
Best scratchings I've ever discovered since leaving the Midlands 2 decades ago. When I still had immediate family there I used go the market in Wolverhamptonb to get some fresh every time I visited but having discovered these I can have them posted to me whenever I want.
Absolutley brilliant quality from every batch I've ordered and will be ordering for the rest of my life I think - of course eating too many of these may shorten that life a bit but at least I will go with a smile on my face, strong jaw muscles and possibly missing a few teeth!

Taking you back to Wolverhampton market days, that’s a proper compliment! Love the loyalty… and we’ll take no responsibility for the strong jaw muscles or missing teeth 😂🐷

Bought a small pot of the original pork scratchings and they are fantastic perfectly cooked. Definitely the best ive ever tasted which says something as I travel a lot and always try the pork scratchings in the local pub.
Only regret was not buying a bigger bag.

If you’re comparing us to pub scratchings across the country, we’re doing something right! Only one solution next time… go bigger 😂🐷

Lovely snacks
Lovely snacks. Easy to order and I really like the resealable packs instead of big jars. Regular flavour was great but I found the maple and BBQ a little too salty. Would definitely buy regular again.
