"bologna" sandwich meat?

Question

any connection to the italian city "bologna"??

Answer 1

Yep, It's named after the city of Bologna in northern Italy.

Edit: To add a source, in case you need one :)

Answer 2

No but as for Bologna, Boarshead cut paper thin RULES, especially if if is on one of this Chicago Rolls from Publix

Answer 3

The traditional deli cut from Bologna is "mortadella" and it seems that "Bologna" deli meat is linked with it because it's similar...but believe me, once you will try "mortadella" you will realize that they are different!

Sometimes to the Italian "mortadella" pistachios are added and usually it's cut very finely. Another difference is that in "mortadella" you will see a bit of round patches of fat...but its all good!

Answer 4

The name bologna does come from the city of Bologna, Italy,

Answer 5

Bologna sausage is an American sausage somewhat similar to the Italian mortadella, (a finely hashed/ground pork sausage containing cubes of lard that originated in the Italian city of Bologna)
