In Italy, a wide variety of sausages, very different from the American product, are made.

The most common varieties marketed as "Italian sausage" in supermarkets are hot,[1] sweet,[2][3][4][5] and mild.[6] The main difference between hot and mild is the addition of hot red pepper flakes to the spice mix of the former, while that between mild and sweet is the addition of sweet basil in the latter.
