- I had a baloney sandwich every day of my childhood,
to this day, if I cut myself, baloney may come out.
On Sundays, we fried the baloney,
baloney, fried baloney and mayonnaise, ugh.
- [Husband] What's in baloney, don't look down.
Don't look down, what is baloney?
- It's like a, it's a product,
baloney is a product of the byproducts
of other meat sources that they kind of put in a tube,
and they slice up, and then it's nutrition.
What is Baloney?
- [Husband] I don't know.
- It's chicken, pork and beef.
That's right, chicken, pork and beef,
so they just take a lot of leftover meat products,
and they just mush them all together.
(game beeping)
