OT [AT] Sausage and cracklings

[Robert Brooks]

George;

Now they package the pig ears after they are dried for pets.  My golden 
loves them, but Joan doesn't care for the look of 1/2 eaten pig ears on the 
family room rug.

She buys rawhide bones instead.  She doesn't buy the argument that they are 
not too different....
