A term derived from the Italian melenzane meaning "eggplant." It often is used as a derogatory term to describe black people. The term is of Neapolitan origin not Sicilian origin as some on here have stated. The Sicilian word sounds more like "milinciana" or mill-in-chyan-ah.
Junior Soprano : "Heroin back in the fifties it was raining cash with that shit. DiMaggio and his crew never saw a dime... Turns out, the cock sucker was making a fortune working with the mulignan."
