'O pere e 'o musso (Neapolitan: [o ˈpɛːr(ə) e o ˈmussə]; lit.'the foot and the muzzle') is a typical Neapolitan dish. Its name refers to its main ingredients: pig's feet and cow snouts. The dish derives from popular tradition and a need to make use of less noble cuts of meat, and is usually sold as street food from carts, in the cities of Campania.[1] It is also consumed in the region of Molise and in the province of Foggia, where the dish is regarded as a "party" food.[citation needed]
