Can someone recommend an open air market to visit in Rome?

Question

My folks would like to experience the scene of an open air market in Rome. I would like to know if there is one or more that you can recommend that is not too "touristy" with displays of authentic foods, produce, meat, etc. I've seen some websites that list some, but would like to get the opinion of those in the know... Thanks!

Piazza Vittorio - food market with a mesmerizing array of fresh foods, fruits, fish and meat, run by people from all over the world.

Campo d'Fiore - is the most charming and well known. 6am-1:30pm Closed on Sunday

Piazza Testaccio

from fresh fruits and vegetables, to bottled jams and honey, to shoes and underwear, jewelry and housewares. The market spills out to the surrounding streets where merchants set up tables selling a wide and unpredictable variety of goods.
