Salmon or Samon

I say salmon and everyone I know does, but I don't socialize much. Don't really care what anyone calls it. Appears native Alaskans call it different things, so why wouldn't Georgians.

All I know is if it ain't in a can you can keep it. Tried some stuff as an adult on the grill that is called the same, but I'll take bream or crappie any day. Priced about $10 a pound too high for something I ain't into when what is in the can is more better.
Don't introduce logic into this.

I didn't know for the longest time what a Brazilian nut was before some was put in front of me. Turns out I knew what it was all along. I just didn't know what the Brazilians called them...
Saw in a movie once. The Rock was in Brazil. Said ah Brazil nuts. Lady said we don't call them that here in Brazil.. What do you call them? Nuts.:huh:

Don’t know a single person who says salmon and my roots are as Southern as anyone on this forum. Interesting
It's us southern poors that say SALmon, not the tidewater bourgeois.

And then I was like "OOOOHHHH OKAY, YEAH!!"

I still have to be careful or it will come out. My mom loved them and we had them out all the time.

I gots some sitting in a bowl with a nutcracker on the desk beside my computer right now. Love those things.

I had them in my Christmas stocking as a kid. I was busting out the term at 4 years old
Brazil nuts, English walnuts, Oranges, jacks games, slinkys, and orange slices were Christmas stocking staples when I was a kid.
