9275 porchetta di campli

its really not just a simple roast pork sandwich as far as Campli is concerned ...there is a whole history behind it that pre dates roman times and even a breed of pigs...

it still goes on and the festival that they hold is renowned throught Italy... if not beyond... well i am trying

heres two links...because there is a lot of it to read

the above deals with the whole history of it and is detailed ...however you need italian... the english version doesnt seem to work yet
