Mr Trotter’s Great British Pork Crackling is what it says it is – made in Britain from British pigs and European pigs. At the time, Parker Bowles said he had been “ incensed” to discover that most pork scratchings sold in pubs came from Danish pigs and so went on to create a snack made using the rinds of British bred pigs alone.

I suppose it’s like if you’re born in India because you are on holiday there it doesn’t make you an Indian. Over a few pints in 2009 Tom and Matthew started ruminating about the possibility of creating a superior scratching – one that was made more of pork than salt and fat, that used British pigs rather than Danish pigs, and that didn't fizz with curious seasonings. In the course of their investigations, they met Graham who agreed that the crackling market was lacking a superior brand. So, here we go, we open the bag, and they look different from what we would expect, they are not scratchings and they are not pork crunch. The sweetness is not sweet like a cake and out of place, but the type of sweet that compliments savoury foods.
