Is it similar to scrapple in taste? I get the sense that the answer is no, but would like to confirm before looking for this. I don't much care for scrapple, but would be willing to give the bologna a try if the taste were more like a standard lunch meat.

Scrapple is very different from Lebanon bologna, which is a lot more similar to standard lunch meat.

Lebanon bologna is closer to a summer sausage or salami, except it's all beef. It has that tangy, fermented flavor.

Scrapple is made from off-cuts and offal and cornmeal, and it isn't fermented. Both the taste and texture are very different from Lebanon bologna. I think most people would find the texture to be more off-putting than the flavor; it's more like a porky hash than like a lunch meat.

scrapple is saltier. lebanon bologna is more like a sweet smokey ham. I don't think the two really relate flavor wise.
