Order of the Sabadiego

Curiosity · Noreña, Oviedo, Asturias

Image of Noreña, not of the place itself.

A brotherhood founded in 1988 to defend the sabadiego, an offal sausage that used to be eaten on Saturdays of abstinence. Each year it names knights and dames and upholds the pork-butchery fame of a town with dozens of meat businesses.
