This spicy sausage is the claim to fame of the sleepy town of Petrinja, which lies about 40km southeast of Zagreb. The most recent ad campaign however for the long, stick shaped snack did its best to shake the town out of its torpor. Nationwide, the country was treated to billboards showing the torso of an unclothed young lady. In one hand she held the desirable object – you guessed it – a Gavrilović salami sausage. In the other she clutched a huge knife – with which of course she was slicing up the snack with evident delight. It's up to you – buy a salami and work out the subtext for yourself.

  I love gavrilovic salami and was very happy to see that one can bay it from USA . By the way my mother was a relative of Mrs Gavrilovic .
