Salame Cremona
Food · PGI · 3572 municipalities
Recognized since 2002, Salame Cremona IGP presents a distinct anomaly among Italy’s protected charcuterie. Its designated production zone, concentrated largely in Lombardy, is geographically vast, covering exactly 3,572 municipalities that range alphabetically from Abano Terme and Abbadia Cerreto to Abbiategrasso. Despite this sprawling, legally defined territory, official registries list zero verified producers currently manufacturing the cured meat. This mismatch sets the denomination apart from its active regional counterparts; it remains an established PGI on paper, mapping out thousands of potential production sites across northern Italy, yet it lacks any actual certified commercial output.
