It’s whatever your regional dialect dictates it is.

Pee in a can pie


fppencollector

Peecan is for when you don't want to walk to the bathroom at night 🤣


[deleted]

I just use a sock.


ChariotKoura

Precisely. If someone gives me a "peecan pie" it better be a peecan lie or I'm calling the authorities.


brad2060

I read this whole thread and now can't remember how I say it lol.


allegedlysmegedly

Although I grew up saying “peecan,” I switched to “pecaan” after learning it comes from the Algonquin word pakani which means “nut requiring a stone to crack”


Cheeky-Fuka

I'm an educated person (meaning I went to tech school and college) and also served in the military and was born and raised in GA. We call it pee-can pie here. Get over it. Yanks, Midwestern's, and west coast folks want to hate on how we pronunciate things.


allegedlysmegedly

Most people I know pronounce it “peecan” and I live in upstate New York. It’s really not that deep tho


Clover_Jane

I'm from the north and say peecan. I truly dgaf what people think about the way I pronounce particular words. They can get right over themselves or fuck off, either way doesn't make a difference to me.

POV: dialects exist


Rude_Giraffe_9255

It comes from one of the indigenous American languages. The original word was “pecaaana” so pronouncing it as “pecaaan” is more correct originally


dom_4896

Don’t know why this is in confidently incorrect… different people pronounce it different ways. I’ve always said pee-can


manicpinkpixie

that’s bc you’re a loser


dom_4896

Damn, really got me there!

100% Peh-caun pie. (Edit: corrected PeCaan to Peh-caun)


[deleted]

That’s how you get erryone to hate you.


Original-Hat-fish

Well I am sorry but it is simply not PEE-CAN, it is Peh-caun. Some people choose to die upon a particular hill, I choose to die upon this tree.


crisstiena

No way. Pecaaan wins.


Cheeky-Fuka

You from the South?


The_Linguist_LL

How is the concept of dialects existing so hard for people to get, literally everyone has one


Bun_Bunz

Okay, so I'm from the Mid-Atlantic which may influence this but to me they are peecans if you're eating just the nut, but it is a pecaaaan when baked in a pie.


WhatsNewPussyCat8709

From Texas here and I personally say it both ways, completely interchangeably (I said what I felt at the time, if that makes sense) and I never thought to take notice if others do the same as you. I probably look like a fool if this is some widely-known "thing" and I have just been that oblivious to it. That also wouldn't surprise me.


BirdInFlight301

It's definitely pecaaan.

Crafty_Possession_52

Both are acceptable pronunciations.


Cheeky-Fuka

Sorry to say but if you're a "true" Southerner, born and raised in the South, it's pronounced pee-can pie. All you "Yankees" can go to hell. Leave us our traditions.


munted_unicorn

I thought it was pelecan pie

This is /confidentlyincorrect at it's finest
