Really even those pre-shredded ones? That's good to know, I find them much easier to just drop into a meal as opposed to chopping up blocks of cheese.
Sounds like the salami should be no problem then, thanks all

Most cured meats require a minimum amount of salt or other curing agents to preserve, it sounds like you're suggesting hanging a leg of pork for months is safe.

Air dried, fermented (something to do with lactic acid fermentation) and properly cured salami/salumi might survive ok without substantial degradation. Extreme heat will make the fat run, and probably send it off. Fat goes rancid in the heat and is not good to consume. Schultes make a nice reasonably shelf stable salami. Hunt around for small producers. Some servos have local salami type products for sale. Salting and curing meat has changed due to health regs over the decades. Far less salt and short curing times mean most processed meats need refrigeration and won't keep very long. Biltong and jerky and friends probably a safer option in a hot environment.

However modern manufacturing processes means that they are made for flavour more than lasting without refrigeration. People say things like "Oh, I bought bacon and salami and it lasted a long time."
But please please please, tell me the details. The brand and the specific type of meat. This will help me buy that specific product.
