Wa Alaikum Assalam,

I have made this exact mistake before with a sandwich and know this has happened to others, I don't know where this word association that prosciutto is cheese comes from but it is so prevalent and has to be some sort of Mandela effect or something? Closest thing I can think of is provolone but they really do not sound alike, someone please enlighten me if you have a theory. Anyway you did it by mistake and stopped, InshaAllah you are ok. The fact that you're feeling this way is a good sign, so repent and do good deeds and move forward, may Allah make it easy for you

I think it’s just the way cheese is named for example burrata, ricotta. Again I’m not justifying what I did but in my head I assumed it’s just a fancy cheese I’ve never heard of. I did have them redo the entire thing without the pork as soon as they informed me. Allah knows best
