Pepperoni/Pepperami

[davver]

Do these mean two different types of pizza? Sometimes it comes with salami and peppers, sometimes just with salami. Does the name signify this? Or is it a matter of opinion? And which do you think is better? Personally, I'm a no-peppers man.

I was always under the impression that Pepperami refers to the thin, sausage shaped sticks of pepperoni that come in foil packets, though the two terms seem to be confused quite a lot these days.
