Sažetak
The Carniolan sausage played a significant role in the formation and development of the Slovene national consciousness from the Spring of Nations onward. It was the main Slovene culinary symbol, the Slovenian culinary flag, a dish which filled Slovenes not just with calories but with pride. But what happened with this dish which aroused immeasurable national pride and zeal during the period of the first Yugoslavia, a time of political, social and cultural change? As in the Austro-Hungarian period it remained the primary object of culinary nationalism and chauvinism – it was caught up in semantic conservatism to a significant degree. But even staunch, solid, stable national symbols such as the Carniolan sausage are (were) not completely conserved over time – i.e. independently of social, cultural, political, economic and many other changes.
