This page exists because these joins exist. A class name that joins to no register entry, no standard, no composition row and no buying guide would not have a page.
US standard of identity
No section of 9 CFR part 319 defines this product. That is worth knowing: it means the name carries no compositional guarantee in the United States, and two products sold under it may have been made quite differently.

Buying it
An emulsified cooked sausage rather than a dried one, which puts it in a different regulatory family from everything else on this list: it is cooked to a lethality endpoint instead of being made shelf stable by drying. Mortadella Bologna is the protected name, and the specification governs the fat cubes as well as the meat.
What to read on the label. Cooked, not dried. Mortadella Bologna is the protected name; the word alone is a style.
Worth repeating in a buying context: no section of 9 CFR part 319 defines this product, so in the United States the word on the front of the pack is a marketing term. The compositional statements that are regulated are the ones on the back, in the ingredient list and the nutrition panel.
This is not a protected designation. The listing below is a product of this type, not a registered name. The register entries for this class are listed above and none of them is what is linked here.
