A deli near me sells smoked sausage that I absolutely love. I've used it in soups many times and eaten it by itself as a snack. I've been buying it around once a month for over five years. Found out yesterday that the casing isn't considered edible.

It'll pass through you, but it's not the best thing in the world. If you notice strings of un-chewable things when you're eating, that's plastic. If you notice pieces of flavorless nonsense when you're eating, that's cellulose. I've been know to eat cellulose casing out of laziness.

Tutti frutti is Italian for "all fruits." Because it's a fruit punch type of flavor.

Recently I learned that rheas are not, in fact, extinct, and South America does still have person-sized birds running around I think I must have conflated terror birds (which are extinct, and from South America) with moas (which are also extinct, from New Zealand, and the word sounds a bit like rheas)

The stain remover Tabort is called Tabort because it's originally Swedish and "ta bort" is "take away" i.e. "remove" in Swedish.

There's an actress named Saoirse Ronan. Her first name rhymes with inertia.

Saoirse Ronan doesn’t pronounce her name quite like it’s meant to be.

Saoirse doesn’t rhyme with inertia. Sharing a last syllable and rhyming are not the same thing

Even at "sear-sha," that doesn't rhyme with "inertia." They're slightly different sounds that happen to end in an "uh," which doesn't make them rhyme.

Saiorse rhymes with ‘nertia. English is my second language however I did not have a first language.

From my understanding the first syllable is somewhere between "sair" and "seer," but like many Irish vowels it's a vowel sound we don't really have in English.

I saw her on Conan or Colbert or something where she said how to pronounce it, and mentioned Irish people always tell her it’s wrong. So both are right depending on if you mean the actress, or the name in general. Also there are absolutely See-ob-hans now. People see it spelled but never spoken and like how they think it sounds.

Don't even get me started on how people don't correctly elongate the vowels in Ronan.

I assume even the Irish aren't sure how to pronounce most Irish words, so no, go ahead and report back. Now that I think about it, going by the diacritic I'm pretty sure the consensus pronunciation at our school was actually off and we were emphasizing the wrong syllable. Close, though
