Despite a personal tendency to drop terminal Gs, no, I wouldn't dare say that.

pumkin pie is a savoury over here.

Savoury doesn't mean the same in America.
It means full of flavour.

If you like pumpkin pie, you'll like sweet potato -- they use pretty much the same spice mix and the texture is the same. You can tell the difference, but you'll still like it.

Yeah, I have to disagree with Wolf that really, if you like pumpkin pie you'll probably like sweet potato pie and vice versa. Texturally nearly identical, spice mix is the same, and a flavor that's subtly different but really, very similar.

I think if you tell someone who is used to a grudgingly-purchased-at-the-store-once-a-year pumpkin pie that your sweet potato pie is really pumpkin, they won't notice, and will in fact think that your pie is the best thing on earth and no store pies compare.

I may have to make another one today. Frozen crust and pumpkin mix in a can and hell, that's fine by me. Still beats pre-cooked for some reason.

Indignant Pie - doesn't make me angry at all - it's, actually, pretty damn funny.

Pecan pies make me angry. Probably just because I hate pecans. they leave my mouth feeling like I just chewed up an eraser. They just sit on the top of the pie staring at me like they are something I want to actually eat.

Haggis!

I know! You almost feel obligated, but you just can't bring yourself to rise to the occasion of eating one of those S.O.B.s!

What always gets me is how everyone around me gushes about it. Pecans suck, guys.

Shawnee123 · 12-02-2010, 08:55 PM

Then there's the pronunciation. Is it pee-kahn? PEE-can? I dropped out of phonetics class in college so that's the best I can do.

Question for all:

How do you pronounce pecan? I use closer to the former than the latter.
