• During Carnival celebrations in Verona, "bacanal del gnoco" has continued since the Middle Ages; each year an old man with a long white beard and a red trumpet sticks a golden fork into a gnocco (the singular form of gnocchi) and rides around on a mule, together with other helpers, giving out candies and packages of gnocchi.
