No no, I love the trendy version of baloney - MORTADELLA - ok, so it has little pistachios in it and Mario Batali is travelling around New York with a big tube of it on his scooter, it's still baloney!
Funny - my mom craved fried baloney sandwiches when she was preggers with my brother. When my bro and sis were little, they called baloney "bonky" - so she always served fried "bonky" sandwiches.
Yuck - no more for me - I watched the "Unwrapped" episode where they made baloney. Blech.

Boar's head makes some good stuff. I once bought their hotdogs and didn't care for them at all. Give me Hebrew National, Sabrett, or Vienna Beef any day over the Boar's Head.
After working in delis for many years, Boar's Head is mostly hype, yes they have good products, but there are lots of other companies putting out high quality stuff at better prices. Did you know that in order for a store to sell Boar's Head products, they have to have a certain amount of control over the business, meaning that you cannot carry another premium brand, only very low end stuff along side the Boar's Head. So those who shop in a grocery store that carries Boar's Head, only have a choice of Boar's Head or something of much lower quality, meaning the Boar's Head looks far superior.
Our Boar's Head guys were like the Mafia, they were New York Italians, with names like Vinny, Tony, etc...
