Specifically from the city of Bologna, which is a really cool city to visit. The hotdog pancakes there are known as mortadella, which basically means dead stuff.

Two slices John F. Martin Sweet Bologna in a sandwich with soft unhealthy white bread, one slice of American cheese, an unhealthy amount of mayo, and a bag of artery clogging Herr's chips. Far better than that other pale bologna.

It was originally called "Mortadella di Bologna" - mortadella from Bologna. And the word mortadella may well be derived from the word "mortar", since it was originally made with a mortar and pestle. Or possibly from a word that means myrtle, which may have once been used in making the sausage. Here's what it looks like:
