    Might be the only person I’ve ever seen in my life who disliked the Sopranos. I assume you don’t eat Gabagool?

      Gabagool? Now that’s a word I had to look up, but luckily Wikipedia once more was able to come to the rescue:

      The pronunciation gabagool has been used by some Italian Americans in the New York City area and elsewhere in the Northeast US, based on the Neapolitan language word capecuollo (pronounced [kapəˈkwollə]) in working-class strata of 19th- and early 20th-century immigrants.

      So it turns out that I do like to eat it, but I normally just call it coppa.
