Well it's time for me to leave

Capicola - my Mother referred to it as gabagool as she was 50% Italian.

My brothers and I all call it that in honor of her.

Didn't know what capicola was either LOL

Well I've seen this recently for sale here. Gona try it. They sell this in the Spanish section of a supermarket near here.

With that much pepper I better get ready first with some ice cold Pale Ale.

That is it... you slice it thin and put it on a platter with other cold cuts. Dip it in your choice of mustard and eat it without any bread or anything.

Probably an old Italian thing (I'm sure some Italians know better than I) but that was part of my childhood and I've been running with it since then.

My guess it is more of reliving the feeling of how things were than enjoying the taste today but the taste is pretty spot on good.

Edit: All that being said, you go to lunch and don't at least take orders from the rest of us and I'll ban @jazzc.

It does look mediterranean. That amount of spice around it was probably originally meant to keep the meat from rotting. Lots of mediterranean food does that. Your Roman ancestors knew how to keep their meats.

PS. I hope @jazzc ain't vegetenarian!
 
LOL. OP your title is quite deceptive. I thought maybe you were hired to run a Fortune 500 company.
 
Actually, I've been on the fully carnivore diet for a while now and it's awesome, but I'm not doing the vegan-style preaching thing so google it on your own :p

Well I've been on the fully carnivore diet for decades LOL

Awesome quote. Though I didn't die after the pizza. I guess life is a like a box of pizza, you never know what you'll get next.
