I don't eat much salami of any sort. I pretty much stopped buying it
when Hebrew National started adding a preservative. Before, I could
keep it just about forever, even without refrigeration. (You had to
pay extra for salami that had been hung to dry. Now the Board of
Health forbids that in the store. You couldn't do that anyway because
with the preservative, it will spoil.)
