A Ban on Some Italian Cured Meat Is Ending

Not a bad decision, it's very good food waiting to be ingested.

Salami.

The United States Department of Agriculture will relax a decades-long ban on the importation of many cured-pork products from some regions of Italy starting May 28, greatly increasing the number and variety of salumi in markets and restaurants here.

A ban on Italian cured meat, how barbaric

The Italians tend to cut corners, but it differs from company to company

Lol, I agree. I just got back from Rome last week with almost my own bodyweight in Salami and Porchetta in my suitcase.

Horrible stuff

Stick to curry

Gabagool is just copa isn't it? I brought back a lump of copa about the size of my head from Parma a few years back, and another one last year from Reggio. Mmmmmm.

When in Rome, eat the porchetta. Eat everything else too, but eat the Porchetta first.

@Jim. Man can not live by curry alone. Having said that I do undertand if he'd like to give it a damn good try. I've always though butter chicken would make a good breakfast curry.

Anyway, I'm having picci with a meat ragu tonight - washed down with a bottle of pomerol. Anything to make up for working on a saturday.

Tonight it's chicken, mushroom and leak in a white creamy sauce over a bed of plain rice and a side portion of chips...washed down by Carlsberg and a glass or three of Nelsons blood mixed with peppermint cordial.
