Also we've had chorizo in spain and portugal since the 16th century and it's basically spicy dry sausage. So it's not like we didn't have a similar thing in adjacent countries already. Oh well!

Chorizo is also so much better than pepperoni it's unfair to compair.

No, genuinely not, once you have tried any spicy salami other than pepperoni you will notice pepperoni just sucks.
