Mortadella is a type of smoked sausage originating in Bologna, Italy, and is the original from which the slang name baloney came. It is pork flavoured with garlic and anise. The Romans called the sausage a variation of farcimen mirtatum. Some evidence points back to the 1300’s showing this kind of sausage was made in Bologna.
