While some people might think baloney sandwich meat was named after this city, that is false. But the red sauce with meat many enjoy over pasta is named for this city being Bolognese sauce. Ironically many places in the world call it spaghetti sauce, which is a shame because that is the name of the pasta not the sauce.
