mortadella looks more like this, it has a lot of fat.

My mother used to buy some "bologna" looking stuff from the local butcher shop. It took me almost 3 minutes of googling to figure out what it was called: Leberkäse!

It has neither liver(leber), nor cheese(käse) as ingredients, but does include corned beef, pork, onions, and, wait for it... Bacon!

It's been at least 20 years since I've eaten it.

ps. Evo, that looks more like Blutwurst. One of only two foods on the planet I will never again go near.
pps. Do not google it. You will never unsee it. You have been warned.
ppps. I just threw up. See!
pppps. OMG. It looks like this is a popular dish around the world.
ppppps. per wiki: "Blood sausages are very difficult to find in American supermarkets"
pppppps. GOOD! And let's keep it that way!

I love blood sausage. When i was little my mother used to buy blood sausage with tongue, so you had theis black sausage with this pink thing in the middle. The tongue was the best part.

Leberkäse sounds very yummy.

I've had blood sausage, but have never tried tongue. What is the texture like? I'd prefer not to bite into my own tongue to find out.

I had chorizo sausage slices, fried with scallops and served over fries with a garlic and smoked paprika aioli sauce.
