Okay this reminds me this morning of a rather embarassing moment....
When I first moved to Maine (many years ago) I was with some friends at a truck stop one early morning after bar hoppin'. Up here they have poutine, which is fries with gravy. This is a Canadian dish and is to be pronounced (pu-teen). Somehow it did not come out of mouth sounding like that...
I think ya'll can figure out how the word was pronounced by a southerner lol...
Yep (pu-tain)... which we all know is not the same thing as fries and gravy.
OMG not just my friends but everyone in the truck stop busted out laughing... Good thing I was a bit lit and really didn't care too much!!
