Food Programme - Pork Scratchings

Logo for Food Programme - Pork Scratchings

In part 2 of the Food Programme's summer series, food writer Charles Campion indulges his love of pork scratchings, the carnivore's popcorn. We meet the pigs with the most suitable skins, chew the fat with black country pub goers, tour the scratchings factory in comedy hats, and see how the upmarket chefs are re-interpreting the scratching for the discerning palate. Producer: Sukey Firth.
