'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]}

'O pere e 'o musso can be found in traditional shops and butcheries; however, it is most popularly sold by street vendors using stalls, carts or motorized vehicles such as apecars.^[1]

In the past, the salting of the meat by the street vendors was carried out by using a characteristic instrument, a dispenser consisting of an animal horn with a hole at the end. This tool is still in use by some vendors.
