The pepperoni roll is a snack
popular in West Virginia and
some nearby regions of the
Appalachian Mountains.
Ubiquitous in West Virginia
(particularly in convenience
stores), but traditionally little
known elsewhere, it is arguably
the food most closely
associated with the state (a
competitor for this distinction is
the ramp). Fairmont, West
Virginia, claims the title of
'Pepperoni Roll Capital of the
World.'

The classic pepperoni roll
consists of a fairly soft white
yeast bread roll with pepperoni
baked in the middle. The
pepperoni can be either in the
form of a stick or of several
slices folded together. During
baking, spicy oil from the
pepperoni suffuses the bread.
Most people prefer the rolls to
be moist but not soggy; thus,
the texture of the bread is an
important factor in the rolls'
quality. A typical pepperoni roll
weighs about three ounces,
and can be eaten as a snack or
as the main dish of a lunch.
Pepperoni rolls can be eaten
cold, or can be warmed slightly
in an oven or microwave.
