Let's call the whole thing off.

I dispensed with the middle part of the song-and-verse.

To-mah-to

Being Australian rather than American I say to-mar-to. I don't think anyone outside America (apart form Americans abroad) says to-may-to.

But I would of thought most yanks said to-may-to its just the Amercan accent thats all. A yank saying to-mar-to instead of to-may-to would just sound wrong. If you are going to speak with an American accent then you really need to do it properly and say to-may-to.

(PS: When I was 7 I came back to Australia from Kenya speaking with a full on American accent thanks to having gone to a school for Americam missionary kids - Rift Valley Academy- so as a kid I said to-may-to myself. But now I couldn't speak with an American accent if my life depended on it, except I do remember how to say tomatoe in American).

What really gets me though is that Americans call my car a 300 Zee X instead of a 300 Zed X. That just sounds so wrong. "Zed X" is cool, "Zee X " is not.

You know what brother, it doesn't matter much. When you want a slice, you want a slice! Call the damned things whatever you like. Just where the hell did the tomato, to-mah-to, tomate, come from? Wherever...God bless the ground it was grown on! Ha ha They're good eating!

And nobody has even mentioned 'fried green tomatoes!' Thick corn bread batter, in freakin' lard ~ cast iron skillet on top of the stove!!! Or broiled red ones, like they do in England for a good hearty breakfast. God!!! I love the things.

[oldred]

I don't know where it comes from but I say ta-may-ter. Neighbors and friends laugh at me. Family doesn't say it that way. Not just the red veg either. Other o=ending words as in, "Close the winder you're lettin' miskeeters in". Probably has somethin to do with the dyslexia.

And dam those donuts look good!

[Built2Serve]

ma-ters? That's how we'uns say it in Kentucky. And if your lucky enough to live in the trailer park there is always some old guy that has 20 plants around his tin bungelow and he will tell you to getusom maters.

There were donuts? Where?

Had a step-mom from Owenton, Kentucky for a while when I was much younger. Probably where I picked it up from. My favorite step-mom too.

I have a buddy that lives near there in Carrollton. Very country in that area. I live in Louisville but I travel extensively with my job. So I am rarely there.

BTW, Nice to meet you!
