Bologna, also known as bologna sausage or baloney, is believed to have originated in the Italian city of Bologna. It is a type of cooked, cured, and smoked sausage made from ground pork and beef. The sausage is then traditionally flavored with salt, pepper, and other spices. It is typically sliced and served on sandwiches or as a cold cut. The origins of bologna can be traced back to ancient Roman times, where a similar sausage made from pork was consumed. It is also believed that bologna was brought to the United States by European immigrants in the 19th century. Oscar Mayer, the American meatpacking company, began manufacturing bologna in the early 20th century. The company was founded in 1883 by German immigrant Oscar F. Mayer, who started out as a butcher in Chicago, Illinois. The company began producing bologna and other processed meats, such as bacon and wieners, during the early 1900s. Since then, Oscar Mayer has become one of the most well-known and popular brands of bologna and other processed meats in the United States. Marconi Bologna ® Copyright © 2023
