If you knocked on the pantry door, which spice would answer?




Cumin!

I was going to say "Rosemary" because it knows it is my favorite.

No! Cumin. Sounds like "Come In". C'mon down to my level.
Knock knock.

Do I have to beg? Got a food pun joke?

Yes, it's funny! LOL! Thanks for hitting me over the head with it,
because I really didn't get the joke... I say cu-min.

It comes from having read the word long before learning it was
pronounced a different way and I still haven't made the mental switch.
Probably never will. I'll just mentally check off that ***-in =
cu-min if I hear it pronounced your way.

actually, although i've always pronounced it kyou-min, kum-in seems to be
preferred:

<http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cumin>

with variants of kum-in listed after that.

I never even suspected that there might be alternate pronounciations
for cumin. It's just always been COO-min to me. Ya learn something
new every day.
