>salame piccante
Salame piccante in italy has 0% to do with the crap passed as pepperoni in US pizzas. It's a traditional salami (cured meat). The same way Sprite is not champagne.
>Pepperoni does not exist as an Italian word.
I know, I speak the language. Peperoni however, where the name for the topping was copied from, does, and is the plural for a kind of pepper (bell pepper).
Peperoni or pepperoni (which is often referred in both "p" and "pp" version in the US), is obviously a copy of the italian word "peperone", out of context, to make it sound as this crap is some traditional italian ingredient.
