That was Vienna actually....

That is because pepperoni is German for chilli pepper. I have made the same mistake when I actually wanted peppers. I think you need to ask for Peperoni-Salami or something like that. I haven't tried though, I usually go for something with more veg.

They do some very nice little peppers stuffed with goats cheese one of the markets here. I bet they would be nice on a pizza.
