Yes, I know.  :D
However, in Italy, we call it 'Mortadella', which is also the nickname (not only among his opponents) of our new prime minister, who actually is from Bologna.

I remember buying "Mortadella" at my grocery store...and I keep thinking, "This stuff looks and tastes a lot like bologna".  Now I know why :P

And looking at the sites that refer people to us...we get quite a few (more than I expected) hits from people looking for DRUGS lol...and I won't even ask me why we rank #6 in google when you type "Synthesis of Cocaine".

And this is the best one.

Go to Yahoo! and type in funny math quotes . we're #1 ! hahahahaha

At least we don't rank number 1 for "Jessica rabbit porn" anymore, that was kind of annoying.

Sounds about right.  Currently chemicalforums.com ranks #1 on searches for:

"MSDS Blocks" courtesy of Mitch
"World Central" +"White bear" courtesy of geodome
"Mole Herder" courtesy of Mark Kness

Sorry if I left anyone out...and as you can tell I was bored :D
