Officials have said Mexican bologna, which has a different taste from its U.S. counterpart, can sell for as much as 10 times its retail price in Mexican-American communities north of the border.
Que?
EDIT: How does taste in comparison to legal bologna?
If we get technical about it, it's not bologna, it's a Mexican version of salchichón, which is a type of Spanish summer sausage.
It's a bit like bacon, with a fuller taste than plain bologna. However, the most important component of its taste is nostalgia. It's what you eat when you visit your grandpa in your family's hometown. The first morning after you arrive you'll get sent to the nearest store. All the old people there will ask whose kid you are. When they find a connection, they'll tell you a few stories about your parents when they were kids. Then they'll wrap however much bologna you needed in a brown paper cone, and give you a free cone full of jamoncillo(only one free per town visit, the rest of your stay you have to buy them), which you'll eat on your way back while marveling at how friendly small town people are. And once you're back, you'll enjoy some of that bologna with eggs fresh off the hens before a day of mundane farm life that looks amazing because you're a city kid who only eats plain bologna on your school lunches.
When bologna is outlawed only outlaws will have bologna.
In the Old Days, they used to have to smuggle these by Baloney Pony.

How do you destroy bologna?

First comment: "How did I get here?"
I actually meant [this]. But that is sooooo much worse.
Sorry. That's awful too, though, because it looks like somebody's been shoving clowns into a sausage extrusion machine.
I think I ended up on the weird part of Youtube again…
Never follow Creatch down a youtube hole. He can breathe underwater.
Let's smuggle the baloney!
